Um, thanks?
It's happened to most of us. You open a gift that's so horrible or so wrong for you that's it's hard to disguise your reaction. Hopefully you can pull yourself together and put on a happy face. Then, even though the giver knows you’re going to return the item, say thank you and try to act as if you’re not horrified.
Returns, however, are not all created equally. Every retailer has its own policy and it's important to know what those are so you don't get stuck with gifts you don't want.
