2. Look through circulars and online - especially MSN Shopping - to find information about and reviews of various products that you are interested in. Save your research and print it out so that you can refer to it before buying.
3. Learn whether you can register your new product online and explore what kinds of coverage the manufacturer provides when something breaks.
4. Make the person you are speaking to feel good about themselves by asking questions and making gestures that show you are interested in what they are saying.
