Welcome to “Ask Stacy,” a new video feature on Money Talks News. Most weekdays, I’ll answer a money question sent in by a reader or viewer. (Learn how to send in a question of your own below.)
Today’s question is about extended warranties and service plans. They’re available on everything from the smallest electronics to entire houses, and they’re often a high-pressure sale. Should you bite? Here’s what I think.
For more information on this topic, check out “Ask Stacy: Are Service Plans and Extended Warranties Worth It?”
Got a question you’d like answered?
You can ask a question simply by hitting “reply” to our email newsletter, just as you would any email in your inbox. If you’re not subscribed, fix that right now by clicking here. It’s free, only takes a few seconds, and will get you valuable information every day!
The questions I’m likeliest to answer are those that will interest other readers. In other words, don’t ask for super-specific advice that applies only to you. And if I don’t get to your question, promise not to hate me. I do my best, but I get a lot more questions than I have time to answer.
