Can I return it???

This is a silly question...but a few months back there was a great sale (and what isn't) at JoAnns and I bought about 20 skeins of RH. The problem is I used a few skeins and forgot what the others were for. So now I have about 10 skeins of random colors nothing matches and they dont really go well together. I am working on another afghan now and I could really use more yarn in those colors. DO you think JoAnns will let me swap out my old yarn? They have never been opened but I dont have a receipt at this point.

It wouldn't hurt to try as long as you are just exchanging them. It would have to be for the same brand I think but go try the worst they would tell you is no!

I worked retail for awhile, and they will let you exchange, but be ready to get "current price" for the yarn you are exchanging without a receipt. Ex: if it is now on clearance for 50 cents a skein, that's all they will exchange it for. But it's worth a shot!!

I packed up a few skeins and I am heading off the store. Wish me luck.

For the record incase anyone else runs into this. They were happy to swap out the yarn. No questions asked.

If ever you can't swap the yarn, you can always buy a bunch of black or white yarn and use it in between the colors for either a granny or striped afghan. Almost any colors can go together with enough neutral to go between them.

I did that at Michael's. I bought a bunch at an awesome sale and decided I didn't like the color after a couple months. I figured I'd try to echange it since I had a big project o start. Well, the diff between the sale price and the normal price was enough to finish a ghan for free!

 

I didn't do it on purpose but it was a nice surprise.

Wow i wish i was as lucky as you guys. I had bought 10 skeins of homespun and when i got to using it I HATED IT. I remember reading this and had just lost the reciept so didn't think it would be a big deal to exchange. When i went back to michaels they told me they could only do it by discounting 40 percent. So i didn't get to exchange for the price that i payed. It was okay i just needed to get rid of that gross yarn, but i thought i would just be able to do an even exchange like the rest of you guys.
