Default Academy X2O reel problem

At the end of last year my wife got one of the Academy X2O baitcast reels that were on sale. She's only used it maybe 3 times and when I used it the other day, it would not reel in with any pressure on the line. I messed with the drag and the brake to see if that was the problem. Ranging from if it was hung up or had a small bream hooked it would reel in. Once the pressure was off of the line it would work fine. If I were to bring it back to Academy without the receipt, y'all think they would replace it or I'm SOL?

Thanks for the reply. I brought it in this afternoon and got a store credit for the retail value which was $50.00. The best part was I bought it when it was on sale for $24.99!! Gave the card to the old lady and told her to find one. She came back with an Abu Garcia Revo S....... Said she thought the white was pretty.
