When a customer returns items to Cheap as Chips that they earnt points on, the points they earnt on that item are deducted from their Chippie Rewards account.

If you are only returning one (1) item out of ten (10) items on your purchase receipt, then only the points earnt on the items they are being returned will be deducted from your account.

You will only the dollar amount you physically paid. For example, you return a blender that was $100 but you only paid $80 due to using $20 off from points, the money paid back to the you is only $80.

If you are returning an item that you bought using points for money off or a voucher, then you do not receive the money off amount or voucher back. They are deemed as forfeited.

When a customer is exchanging goods at Cheap as Chips that they bought by redeeming points or a voucher, we will honour the money off amount on that purchase.

For example:

  1. the member bought a blender for $100 but used $20 worth of points meaning they only paid $80. The customer can exchange for another blender worth $100 and does not need to pay the $20 as the total value of the transaction was the same.
  2. the member bought a blender for $100 but used $20 worth of points meaning they only paid $80. The customer can exchange for another blender worth $120 but has to pay the $20 difference to the total value of the original transaction – not $40.
  3. the member bought a blender for $100 but used $20 worth of points meaning they only paid $80. The customer can exchange for another blender worth $60 but will forfeit the $20 money off amount from the original purchase and receive only the difference to the physical money paid by the customer on the original transaction – in this scenario it would be $20 back to the customer not $40.
