Receipt - no prices

The back of my mind tells me there are some trading standards guidance/laws about having to display prices on items, I'm guessing to prevent this sort of practice, but I'm not 100% sure that it's enforceable, or even a real thing.
It's obvious that her job is to judge how much you can spend, and then get you to spend it. If you'd have negotiated, she probably would have dropped the price more.
However, you were happy with it when you left the shop at the price you paid, and as such you have no right to return. There was no coercion, you could have said no and walked away.
Put it down to experience!
Practices such as these would likely interest trading standards officers as they are potentially in breach of numerous sections of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations Act. It's worth reporting and they might or might not follow it up, depending on how many other complaints they get.
But in terms of a refund, you're probably going to struggle IMO as you've agreed to the price. The business doesn't need to identify each item on the receipt by price and so as the above poster suggests, probably best to write this off to experience.0 -
I hope you never travel OP most places I go make up the price by sizing you up!!
