you want a warranty with that?

This article talks about if it is a wise choice to buy the extended warranty on a product you have just purchased. they took some surveys that told them that six out of ten americans siad that they bought the lifetime warranties. 75 % of them in another study who bought the warranty said they only bought it because they did so in the past as well.

things like laptops are a good thing to purcahse the warrantes on. electronics and appliances are another thing to buy the warranty. 

some things to look for when purchasing a warranty is-

-read the fine print 

-do your homework about the warranty

-do extra credit homework

-know the life span

-calculate the cost

 -bargain at purchase time

I think that the steps I just listed are the best way to go when buying a warranty.

Especially do your homework on the warranty, because you really need to know as much as you can about the warranty before you buy it.
