Note for the end of the month...
I bought my cheap challenge grinder from argos £17.99 and did something I've never done before.. Bought the insurance to go with it. (£5.99)
I broke it and they replaced it broke and they replace it and replace it etc.. Three years worth of cover the lady in the shop told me... No questions asked..
Going to get a new one soon because I've given it a beating today.

Hahah might do that!!!
I used to do that with MiniDisc players... I got a MD player from Dixons, with the 3 year extended warranty.
They always seem to break after about 13-14 months, so I kept taking it back and getting new ones.
I bought a top of the range one first off, so every time they replaced it they gave me a brand new top of the range MD player. Did it for 5 years I think!!

most home insurance poilcies offer a similar level of cover. When your home electronics are getting a bit outdated they 'fall off the stand' or get 'dropped down the stairs' and they send you a new one.

the classic one is a plant pot on top of a tv and you go and water it and water the tv instead
