Finally an Extended Warranty Pays Off

I rarely get an extended warrantyfor any product I buy, but having one sure paid off today. A few months back I dropped our dehumidifier while carrying it from one place in the house to another. It suffered a monstrous dent and soon after developed a severe rattling sound from deep within. This coupled with a wheel that had been missing for nearly a year gave me much reason to take it in for repair. At the Sears repair center, they told me that my warranty covered the dehumidifier until 2009. Did I actually buy it for that long??? I guess so. Anyway, I picked it up today, and it looked brand spankin' new. I still probably won't get too many extended warranties anytime soon, but damn if it didn't help me today.
