With the quality of the products today - I do expect something to happen. I am happy when it doesn't.

I take the label, receipt and warranty card (if there is one), staple them together and write the date the warranty expires on it and throw it in my paper-work basket.
If I notice that one of them is past the date, I pitch it. But having all that paper has bailed me out a time or two. And not just on the less expensive tackle either.
