With a receipt and/or the credit card you bought with is pretty common.

  Yeah.. I'm confused; I return a lot of stuff at hardware stores, because I suck at buying the right things. If I don't have a receipt, returns differ by brand: - Menards; just added ability to look up your receipt yourself at their self-help terminals, so now they require you find the receipt there - Lowes; requires the card you bought it on - Harbor Freight; can help find the receipt, or will give in-store credit - Home Depot; no idea, who shops here, it's way more expensive and they have nothing in stock lol

    With home improvement returns make sense. You’re going to want to start the day with more than you’ll need for certain jobs.

    Menard's is great. If you don't remember when you bought the item, you just scan it and they look up when it was purchased using your card.

  I didn't even know you could return anything anywhere without a receipt.

    Home Depot will allow it. I've done it - they don't like it (the odds are much higher that you stole it in the first place), but they will allow it. Enough customers who spend a lot of money at the store return things all the time that they need to make this a pleasant experience so they keep coming back. Note that on the scale of Home Depot the guy complaining is a small customer. The big customers spend thousands of dollars there very week and return 10s of dollars every week. (buy 100 2x4, use 95 and return the 5, then repeat 100 for the next project tomorrow - they need the return because they have to pass the receipts on to their customers who might check to be sure they are not cheated out of $20 on a $15000 project)
