If you are ready to shop and purchase a big ticket item, like say a plasma HDTV , or a new iPhone and you have a fabulous handy dandy gold or platinum card that you planned to lay down, you are in luck! Not only will you get tons of reward points for your big purchase, but, more likely than not you will have also just doubled the life of the warranty on the item you purchased. Many high level credit cards also offer great perks like purchase protection and extending the warranty of items purchased with your card, up to one year, on top of rewards points!

Contact your card, keep your receipts, and make a file to have handy with all of the information ready, in the event you might need that extra time to repair or replace your item. Credit cards offer purchase protection to help you get the best deal!
