Do you know that buying products that have lifetime guarantees is a great way to save money?
Items that have lifetime warranties usually have a longer lifespan than those that don’t.
Why not try specific companies or brands that offer lifetime guarantees the next time you go shopping? You may shudder at initial cost but you will learn to be intentional rather than impulsive when you buy.
Think about boots for winter. Buy smart, buy quality and you will find the item may last you a few years.
Here’s a list of 7 brands that carry some of the longest guarantees around:
1. Tupperware
Does your back to school shopping include new lunch boxes for the family? Probably last year’s ones look dull and worn out.
Why not buy Tupperware instead? They look smart and come in cool colours. Plus they keep food fresh, is spill proof and has a lifetime warranty on its products.
You can get your money back (or a replacement) if there are damages in keeping with the company’s warranty policy:
“warranted by Tupperware against chipping, cracking, breaking or peeling under normal non-commercial use for the lifetime of the product.” (Source)
