'Everyone stared' Costco shopper admits after returning two-year-old item – it passed stain check & they got $200 credit | MN9VMUR | 2024-05-06 17:08:01
A COSTCO shopper has told how she received a $200 in store credit after returning a two year old mattress.
Yuliana Martinez and her boyfriend tossed the dusty item in their trunk and hauled it to their local store in Los Angeles.
"We saw on TikTok we can return a mattress anytime so we did," she said in a video uploaded to TikTok.
The duo explained how their venture aroused attention as they walked through the store doors.
She continued: "Everyone was staring at us, so we stared back at them. It was so nerve-racking."
Yuliana was told by an employee that they would accept the mattress as long providing it wasn't stained – and it successfully passed the test.
The influencer, who was handed a $200 gift card and receipt, snapped the item being escorted away by a retail worker.
Viewers flocked to the comments to share similarly outlandish items they have returned.
"My grandma returned a year old plant that died on her," one user admitted.
"She got her money back."
A second weighed in: "I saw a lady return a dead Christmas tree in March."
A third added: "I returned a Doughboy pool after summer was over – 100% refund."
