Stinky Storage Cube: Kmart

Hi,

A couple of days ago, I bought a 3-pack of small, dark blue, collapsible storage cubes from the kid’s section at Ashfield Kmart. Since opening them, a god-awful smell has been emanating from them – stinking up the areas of the house where they are.

I don’t know if I can take them back, as I have lost the receipt. They were $11~ though, and the only thing that I bought, so will have the exact amount on my bank-statement.

Is it possible to use that to return them? They really do smell terrible, and while it is only $11, it’s a waste of money.

I did end up receiving a reply to this from Kmart – though, we ended up just keeping the boxes. They have been stored in the garage for 11 months, and may almost be ready to bring inside. Maybe.

  1. Hi Jenny

    I too have purchased two packs of pink cubes and the smell is horrendous!!! I have put both packaging and receipt in the rubbish. Thinking I’m going to have to do the same with the cubes… They are that bad!!! Smells like a dead rat

    1. Hi,

      I hope that you managed to sort out what to do with the cubes – apparently if you have record of the transaction with your card, or bank statement, you can have the money refunded.
