Default Re: Ethics re: buying then returning stuff

When I was in college I was as unethical as your friends.

I bought an X-Box on release night and it had all kinds of problems. After a couple years it was barley even functional. I ended up buying a new one about a year and a half ago from Shopko and returned my original in the box. I bought a memory card from Walmart and returned it so I didn't lose the saves from my hard drive.

I also have "rented" numerous radar detectors and power invertors for road trips. One time I was on a lacrosse trip which was scheduled to be played outdoors. When we arrive at the school, there's still snow on the field and were playing indoors. I went to the local K-Mart and bought their nicest pair of sneakers $29.95 a pair, only to return them before I left town. I paid the price though. My feet badly blistered up. I couldn't walk for over a week without my feet hurting.
