If Grandma places a sweater two sizes too small under the tree this year, you’re less likely to have to wear it next Thanksgiving. Retailers–hoping to encourage pre-Christmas sales–are making return policies more lenient this holiday season.

Saks (nyse: SKS – news – people )
Saks will exchange, replace or credit purchases that are in salable condition if returned within 60 days of the purchase and with a receipt. During the year watches and jewelry must be brought back within 30 days, but for the holidays Saks will accept these items up until Jan. 15, if bought on or after Nov. 1 and are accompanied by a gift receipt.

Category Uncategorized | 0 Comments »Milwaukee Journal Sentinel — Damon Jones, a guard on the Milwaukee Bucks roster, hasn’t shown up in town, but one of his creditors has come here to find his money.

A lawsuit was filed against Jones, the self-proclaimed best-dressed man in the NBA, for not paying a New York City clothier almost $16,000 for some custom-tailored threads.
According to the lawsuit, Jones bought $15,879 worth of apparel from Jared M Custom Clothing in August 2005. The clothier, represented by local attorney Darrell Zall, is seeking the money plus interest of 5% per year. Zall said Thursday that he had no further comment.
Matt Wessel, a spokesman for the Bucks, said Jones and the organization had come to a mutual agreement that he would not join the team. However, he remains officially listed on the roster. The Bucks got Jones in a trade last summer that sent Mo Williams to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
