Checkout Line Dilemma: Extended Warranties and Protection Plans
You have probably been asked if you want to purchase an extended warranty or protection plan while in the checkout line of a major retailer. Presenting the offer at checkout gives you only a split second to make an informed decision about the potential benefits of the plan. What does the extended warranty cover? Some plans offer a wide range of protection for accidental damage, misuse, theft and defects. Make sure you understand what the plan covers and excludes. Is there a deductible for repairs or replacement?
