"Costco's magnanimous return policy was severely tested last week in Santa Clarita, Calif., when a woman returned her Christmas tree to the big-box store and asked for a full refund \"because it was dead.\"And even though Yule fur trees are pretty much dead once you chop them down a month or so before Christmas, she got her refund, according to another customer.Scott Bentley was so outraged the woman's chutzpah, he posted a photo he took of her along with his commentary on Facebook.\"I can't make this stuff up,\" Bentley wrote. \"Woman in line at Costco, totally nonchalant, to return her Christmas tree 'because it is dead' on January 4.\"If I didn't see it, I wouldn't believe that someone had so little morel  values or lack of conscience.\"While he did note that the woman did get shamed by store personnel and other customers &mdash; \"to a small degree,\" he was also angry at Costco for allowing the \"ridiculous\" return.A picture accompanying the post showed a woman with a red \"X\" over her face standing with a dead Christmas tree at the Costco customer service counter."
