No, unfortunately you do not have 3 days to mulll the contract over. Very few agreements have an rescission right, or right to back out of them, within 3 days; in fact, the main category I can think would be mortgage agreements, which allow a 3-day rescission period. Otherwise, a contract is binding as soon as it is accepted and agreed to by a party, and there is only a right to cancel or rescind if the contract itself provides for such a right.
