Woman Returns Dead Christmas Tree to Costco on January 4th

There's a lot of free money for you out there in the world if you have zero shame, ethics, or personal code. I know, I know. I had you at "free money."

A guy posted a picture on Facebook on Friday from the returns and exchanges line at his Costco in Los Angeles. The woman in front of him had dragged in her huge Christmas tree, to try to return it.

On January 4th. Her reason: "because it's dead."

And Costco actually gave her the refund. The guy says the staff shamed her a little bit, and didn't want to give it to her, but she stood her ground, and eventually they gave in.

Here's the caption he posted with the photo:

I CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP....Yesterday Jan. 4, 2018 at my Costco. Shame on Costco, Shame on this loser, but it's going to start costing all of us when the word gets out......
Woman in line at Costco, totally nonchalant, to return her Christmas Tree "because it is dead" on January 4th. I saw the whole thing go down with my own two eyes about 30 minutes ago. If I didn't see it, I wouldn't believe that someone had so little moral values or lack of conscience.
Heartbreaking to think she may have needed that money so much, she lost all self respect and dignity for it. I wish I hadn't felt so offended initially, otherwise I would have tried to talk to her to find out what was going on. Makes me sad and sorry.
SHE DID GET A REFUND -NOT HAPPILY THOUGH. IT WAS QUESTIONED, VERIFIED PURCHASE ON HER ACCOUNT AND SHE WAS SHAMMED TO A SMALL DEGREE....
BUT I DON'T THINK IT FAZED HER BECAUSE SHE HAS NO CONSCIENCE -SHE DIDNT SEEM TO MIND THAT I TOOK A PHOTO AND SAID "ARE YOU SERIOUS?!!!!
