Maybe some mom and pop shops will let you do it but I doubt larger stores will.
Same here... no ill will intended. But I returned a big ticket item to a large local electronics store. Silly me, I forgot my card. Rather than trucking back home, the cashier allowed me to use another card for the refund, and the only other card I happened to have on me was my bank's debit card. The funds were put directly back into my checking account, and I kept the miles.
Thought about it,, but never did that again, intentionally or otherwise.
