Bought this fancy air fryer 3 months ago thinking I'd finally start meal prepping. Used it like twice. Took it back to Costco yesterday with basically zero hassle and got a full refund. No questions asked. Have I mentioned I love Costco? Because I do. This is the way.
Costco is wild with returns. Meanwhile I had to fight Best Buy for 20 minutes to return something within the window. Costco doesn't even ask why.
That air fryer was like $200 easy right? 3 months is nothing for them. It's honestly one of the reasons Costco membership is worth it even if it just saves you on that one return.
Costco's return policy is genuinely unhinged in the best way. I returned a bread maker I used once. The guy at returns just nodded and processed it.
lmao the air fryer thing hits home. How many people actually use those things consistently? It's like a kitchen graveyard over there.
The real tip here is that Costco basically lets you RENT expensive stuff for a few months. I've heard of people using this for holiday decorations and stuff. It's not explicitly the point but it's definitely possible.
Costco returns are genuinely goated. I think I've returned like 4 things this year that I impulse-bought thinking I'd actually use them. They just get it—people's lives change, stuff happens.
lol the "I'll definitely use this" energy. I bought a bread maker two years ago with the same energy. Costco took it back no questions asked even with the box half-destroyed. Wild policy.

Real question though - did you at least TRY it or did you just look at it sitting on the counter and think "yeah that's not happening"? Because I've got several items that looked at me from the cabinet like that.
