It handles short windows such as 7 or 14 days for electronics, the common 30 day window, longer 60 and 90 day policies and full year guarantees, and correctly crosses month and year boundaries and leap days.
How to track return deadlines
Type the item, the store and the price, set the purchase date and choose the return window printed on your receipt. If the receipt gives an exact last day instead, choose Exact date and enter it. ReturnDeadline shows the last day to return before you save, then adds the item to a list sorted by deadline. Each row shows how many days are left, turning amber in the final week and red in the last three days.
Click Add to calendar to download all open deadlines as a calendar file with a reminder two days before each one. When the item goes back, click Returned; it stays crossed out in the list so you can watch for the refund.
Tips for stress-free returns
Keep receipts together, or note in the item where the email receipt is. Leave tags on clothes and keep the original packaging for electronics until you are sure. Some stores count the window from delivery for online orders, and many shorten windows for electronics and opened items, so record the window from the actual receipt rather than memory. If a deadline falls on a holiday, return a day or two early.
