It's so difficult to make ethical choices when purchasing.
My washing machine 'died' mid-week, though after at least 20 years service I suppose it doesn't owe me anything. I cdn't buy the model I wanted at my preferred store so I reluctantly bought from #Currys (UK).
The next morning I received a faux service call and the guy proceeded to try to sell me insurance. I tried to stop his spiel, but he just carried on with his script. After 4 "No thank you"s, at increasing volume, I hung up.
GAH!
