You then slap on your best excited "thank you" face and proceed to return the gift in the following days. This exact scenario happened to one of The Consumerist's readers, where a man's wife went into Best Buy to get her husband a Valentine's Day gift.

    They should've taken the card back, it was not used and the code was still hidden. I hate stories like this

    If you bring the manager in they'll normally take it back if the package is still closed. I remember when I got a PSN store card the same thing happened with me. They told me they won't take it back. I told them to get the manager and I managed to get it swapped for a 1400 points card.
