I had heard of women buying dresses for a special occassion, wearing them, and then returning them, but not a seasonal thing with lawnmowers and such! I would think that there would be a limit to the time that you have for a return. I know that Sam's Club allowed me a month on my PC when I bought it several years ago.
The longest time for a return that I know of is one that my mother-in-law did at Rich's department store in Atlanta. She returned a hat that she had bought for her husband fifteen years after she bought it. He had not worn it however.
