Buying a new product identical to one you just broke, and returning the old one in the new product box.
Often used when a product breaks just outside of the
warranty period, or if one loses a receipt.
Person 1: "Man, I can't believe my
GoPro broke after just two months!"
Person 2: "Go buy the same one at
Best Buy, put the old one in the box, and return it for a full refund!"
Person 1: "Great idea! I'll return it at a different Best Buy to be safe!"
