We are still washer-less. Elwood P. wants to buy used; I have been looking at new ones. He suggests that we compromise and buy a cheap used one. If it dies, then we'll buy new. This is not my favorite idea, since if it dies we have to deal with the same hassles all over again, but I'm okay with it. Anway: I was browsing at Best Buy (Alex said, "Hey! The last time I asked you if we could go to Best Buy, you said someone would have to pay you a nine-digit sum of money to go back there." This is the trouble with having children whose memories are better than yours.) and found a washer on sale for $2300.
Twenty
three
hundred
dollars.
A washing machine that costs $2300 had better fold your laundry for you. No, wait, it should fold it and then bring it to you with a glass of ice-cold pomegranate juice, freshly extracted via its ultra-high-speed spin cycle. It makes a new front loader look like a positively frugal choice.
don't know how the craigs list is where you are, but i've seen washers and dryers offered for FREE on ours- just depends on the luck of the draw i guess.
i'm hoping that they start listing free fridges, since ours started it's death knell yesterday. that comboed with my car needing 2 grands worth of work last week and a wisdom tooth that wants to rear it's ugly head- ugh!!
good luck!
