Goodness of shopping in UK

Last 2 weeks i bought a brown velvet hoddie
.
It looks really nice with its soft and comfy texture
.
Moreover its cheap, only 2pound
.
.
.

Then, the very next day i feel that it doesn't look as attractive as when i bought it
.
i don't think brown is my colour,
i don't like the velvet look,
i don't like the zipper
i don't like the hoddie
The point is, i just don't like it anymore
.
I admit, its was an impulsive purchase. Girls!
.
But no worries cause there's always this statement in MY receipt that allow ME to practice MY consumer rights!
.
.
.

Yes! All you need to do is bring back your goods in 28days and you can get a full refund.
.
FULL REFUND!!
.
You can wear a jacket for a day and decided to hate the colour the next day and return it
.
Just like me. tsk.tsk >,<
.
No question ask!
.
This is so good especially for impulsive buyer and those indecisive one who always ask their mates " Tis blue shirt nicer or red shirt nicer ar??"
.
And for those of you who cant afford a suit for your date, you can just "rent" one for 28days
.
Make sure you keep your receipt =p
.
.
.
Even with supermarket goods, you can exchange and refund
.
Why i never see these in M-land's receipt wun??
.
And one more plus point is that you don't need to paiseh paiseh to exchange or return
.
Cause you're totally not alone to practice your rights!
.
There are plenty of ang mohs who return their goods everyday!!
.
Read PLENTY and EVERYDAY!!

Look at the queue boy,
Its not any saturdays or sundays.
Its a weekday!!
.
.
.
3 lines of people waiting to return their goods
.
.
.
I'm really curious, don't the people here work on weekdays??
Or they have really good public fund to support them?
.
.
.

If you think Malaysian aunties are crazy during SALES,
You're wrong when you compare it here.
People here are more than crazy when they shop.
And its not even sale.
.
.
.
But we cant blame them for going wild.
.
Their clothes' price is cheap
.
Even cheaper than their Mc.Donalds value meal
(shoe:2.99pound, Shirt:1.95pound, dress:5pound Mc.D:4.25pound)
.
So you want Shoe or Mc.D value meal??
Dress or Mc.D value meal??
.
You choose....
.
.

Looks like a dumpling in my bulky jacket
.
.
.

"Uncle!! You don't need to work on weekday meh??"
.
.
.
p/s: I'm not an impulsive or indecisive buyer (only happen once in a blue moon)
I never "rent" a dress for my date

So nice right? In Malaysia, its like, sale item no return/exchange and also NO TRYING.

Even if got exchange it must be just for size and must be within 7 days how to make it? But makes running businesses here so much easier la. From accounting perspective its so hard to record and recognize revenue with such terms
