I remember an instructor saying:

"It is estimated that over a million quarter-inch drill bits are sold in
this country every year. Interestingly, not one buyer WANTED a quarter-inch
drill bit!

"What every single buyer wanted was a quarter-inch HOLE!"

The instructor was teaching the Dale Carniege Sales Course.

If they really wanted 1/4" holes, they also needed a good micrometer
to make sure the drills were actually 1/4".

From a similar toaster.

The trash, or:

Buy a similar or identical one, and when it breaks, you'll have at
least 3 good elements to repair the current one.

I sometimes buy two or three of something. Once they all die I start using
parts from the others to keep one going. Funny old world.

Call B&D. "It's a bit less than a year old..."

They will tell you to cut off the plug and send it to them. When they get
the plug, they'll send you a new oven.

I've done this three times with the B&D Spacemaker coffee pot. Finally sold
on eBay the last one they sent and got a Mr Coffee ($9.89 at WalMart) and a
appliance timer ($6.59 at Radiio Shack).
