Times Up!

Posted on Dec 14, 2007 under All about Me, Rants | 3 Comments

Why does it seem like everything breaks after a year? My socks, purchased a year ago, have holes in them. The remote, isn’t working right (even with new batteries). The list is endless. Have companies planned for this? Of course they have an interest in you making more purchases, so have they done the research to see what exactly they can do to make their products last just.one.year?

Just some random (crazy) thoughts in my head today as I get ready.

    It’s so true! We had a DVD player break right after the warranty was up.

    You hit the nail on the head! Things are intentionally designed to break after a short time. This is a real eye-opening video:

    I am sad to have to agree. It seems like nothing lasts anymore. I’m tagging you in a Christmas Meme.
