I buy it all - upgrades, attachments and the extended warranty. Then when they ask me for my credit card number, I respond with; "Credit? I don't have any credit. I lost that when I filed bankruptcy after losing my job. It's been over a year and I still haven't found any work. Are you guys hiring? I'm behind on my mortgage and my lights were shut off almost a month ago and I really need to find work." Sometimes I use; "Pay? I thought I won. Why did you lie to me? Do you enjoy playing pranks on senior citizens?"
My favorite was the vinyl siding salesman that I kept on the phone for about 30 minutes discussing colors, textures and options. When he asked for the address so he could come get the contract signed, I added an apartment number. After a long pause, he hung up.
And remember, when they call to to offer you a better deal on refinancing your mortgage, the person calling usually doesn't have the authority to discuss mortages. They have to get their manager on the line...
Sometimes you've just gotta entertain yourself.
