Ladies! I'll let you in on a little secret!

Kohls will take ANYTHING back, tags or not, even if you've washed and worn it, even if you've had it for a year! No receipt! They also let you stack up to FIVE coupons! (I'm a coupon person, I even teach coupon/savings classes here and have a Facebook group) Goodwill here is super expensive but it's far away and in a big money town and I've had the worst luck with my local TJMaxx, maybe they're just b*****s at that one.

I love Kohls. I love that they offer no hassle returns, awesome discounts and Kohl's Cash. I always feel like I get out of there for a fair price.

I don't have any issue with taking things back that don't work out......But there is no way I'd take something back to a store that I'd worn (other than trying it on). If you wear it...it's yours. Hell, I think if you take the tags off, it's yours. If you wash it, it's most certainly yours.

Just cause you can....doesn't mean you should.

If a store plays fair, customers should, too.

I agree, I actually bought a dress recently from a store and I didn't notice it at first, but after I got home and wore it once time... I'm pretty sure it was "used" essentially, because the fabric was faded, once I compared it to another black item. Also the fibers were starting to poke out. I was so disappointed. I think whoever had it before me wore it, re tagged it, or returned without a tag, and I got a used dress for a new price. Tisk tisk. Made me so mad!

I've never returned anything to Kohls, there's not one even near me, but I have seen their policy. I think I'd only use the policy if I had bought something and it ripped open after one wash, etc, you know, like how L.L. Bean used to be. If I buy something that's bad quality you're sure as shooting im getting my money back, I'm poor af!

That’s awesome advice! I struggle with Goodwill as I am tall but I should look for tops. I buy and sell on Poshmark and that has been fun. I used to shop online at ThredUP but they give you the lowest amount of money for your clothes. They gave me $2 for a brand name dress with tags on. Blah.

For defects in workmanship and materials.....I can see how you'd justify that. I bought a $200 Columbia Coat and the zipper broke the first week I had it. I wrote them an email with photos and they sent me a replacement, an apology, and a free postage return box. Good customer service! I was going to pay someone to put in a new zipper...was really glad not to have to.

Like Ash said, though, it annoys the hell out of me when people actually USE clothes and return them. Not only does it make the full price merchandise lower quality, the rest of us have to foot the bill for the losses and the hassle.

Be classy and considerate and use returns sparingly....so a great return policy is there when you really need it:)

Exactly. That's why L.L.Bean stopped their return policy. People abuse things, I bought a camelback water bottle and it leaked and grew mold so I did email them and sent pictures, got a new one.

Good to know Ash!




I lost patience for shopping IRL ages ago. I do all my shopping online. I order tons of clothes a few times a year, try everything on at home and then send everything I don't want back. I wonder if as I move into regular sizes I'll enjoy the in store shopping process again though?


I did all my shopping online too. I’m
Finally enjoying going to the store again.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
