Quoth Bob Buchanan, retail analyst,

Wal-Mart, he said, is currently "offering big-screen TV's but no service warranties. The customer wants service warranties."

The customer wants service warranties? What planet are you on, Mr. Buchanan?


Service warranties

We have service warranties on our washer, dryer, refrigerator, and freezer. And in our case it has paid off, since we call the guy out whenever any of them makes a funny noise. The freezer compressor burnt out once, the washer bin was replaced just for being scratched. I'm not sure I would have ever got the warranty if it were just up to me, but it makes my life easier every time my wife hears one of those funny noises :-)
