Question

What are consumers responsible for when making a purchase?

Check the receipt
Always get the store credit card
Know the return policy
Read the fine print
Take advantage of any promotions going on

Answer 1

Consumers are responsible for:
- Check the receipt — verify price, items, taxes, and keep proof of purchase for returns or disputes.
- Know the return policy — understand time limits, restocking fees, and conditions for refunds/exchanges.
- Read the fine print — be aware of terms, warranties, recurring charges, or exclusions.

Not required responsibilities (optional or a seller offer):
- Always get the store credit card — optional; may have benefits but also interest and fees.
- Take advantage of promotions going on — optional; good to use but not a consumer obligation.
