Later in the afternoon, we thought we'd find a replacement vacuum cleaner as the old one died this week. Tomorrow, expanded levies go into effect on electrical items sold in British Columbia. They help pay for recycling programs for all equipment with a cord or batteries. This law has been phased in over the last half dozen years starting with computers and monitors. This vacuum cleaner is the fourth we've needed. That's an average of only four years per device.
They sure don't make 'em like my mom's old Electrolux.
