thewayneAmongst the things that I was purchasing was a set of replacement heads/brushes for my electric toothbrush.
The cashier rings them up and then, since it popped up on her register screen, ASKS ME IF I WANT THE PROTECTION PLAN FOR THEM.
WTF?!
We were both quite puzzled over that one. What exactly would a protection plan cover? If they wear out, I can get them replaced? THEY'RE EFFING DESIGNED TO WEAR OUT!
When I told it to Russet just now, she said 'Do they offer a protection plan on these paper plates?'
That would make just about as much sense.
