It's dangerous to assume a 3 day cooling off period. It applies in a lot
fewer cases than many consumers ever realize. You should never sign a
contract with the assumption you can get out within 3 days.
In my state this 3 day cooling off period only applies if the consumer
conducts business away from the normal business location. If you buy from a
door-to-door salesman you may have a 3 day cooling off period. If you walk
into a store, you do not have a cooling off period except that which is
included in the written contract.
