Kelly just bought a plastic Baby Bjorn potty seat at Babies R Us. When the cashier rang it up, the system told her to ask Kelly if she’d like to pay another 30% of the purchase price for a service plan.

Kelly writes, “It’s molded plastic that cost me less than $20 and they wanted another $5.99 to protect it. I think you can see from the picture why this was so silly.”
