Tool warrantees on tools you buy locally and get coverage at point of
sale can be worthwhile - particularly when they are a universal
warranty. Snap-on warrants their hand tools - replace "at the truck"
Craftsman warrantee was at any sears store. Mastercraft pro tools -
any Canadian Tire store, Proto at any UAP, etc.

Most of the tool warrantees that I have seen are already factored in the
price of the tool from the more expensive brands. YOu do not have the
option of one or not. That is if I go to Sears and get a Craftsman
wrench it will cost a certain price and I can not opt out of the
warrantee to get for a lesser price. If I buy an oven from them, they
will try to sell me an extended warrantee. I do have a choice on that.

You also have the choise whether you want to pay the extra for the
craftsman or buy the Sears brand with no warrantee.

Most places sell the "good stuff" with a warrantee and the "cheap
crap" without.. Some of the "cheap crap" isn't even all that bad, but
you are taking the chance - if it breaks you buy another one.
