LivingSocial’s refund policy differs for each category they offer:

  • Local deal type: You can ask for a refund for any unredeemed Voucher that is not Final Sale to Deal Bucks until the Voucher's expiration date (unless the fine print says otherwise). Even if the promotional value has expired, your voucher is always worth at least the amount you paid for it with the business
  • LivingSocial Shop deal type: There is a possibility that you can exchange your item for a new one. You can return the product for a refund to Deal Bucks during the period of 30 since receiving it (unless otherwise stated in the fine print). Shipping charges aren’t refundable except in the case when the returned item is defective. Returns shipped without using a LivingSocial-provided return label will be refused for a refund since they aren’t suitable for one
