Wardrobing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wardrobing is the practice of purchasing an item, using it, and then returning it to the store for a refund.[1] It is most often done with expensive clothing - hence the name - but the practice is also common with tools, electronics, and even computers.
Examples
Perhaps one of the most notorious examples of wardrobing comes from the film My Date With Drew, which was filmed entirely on a wardrobed video camera. The filmmaker purchased the camera from Circuit City, used it for 30 days to film his movie, and then returned the camera for a full refund.
