Answer:

can return the bracelet and get her money back

Step-by-step explanation:

Minors have a restriction on the products that they can. To purchase these products they must have consent of their parent or guardian.

Items prohibited from sale to minors include: alcohol, tobacco, petrol, offensive weapons, intoxicating substances, and expensive jewelry.

This was an illegal sale.
