Hi all. Just wanted to share. Hope this doesn't get too long. Our 13 yr old washing machine is on it's last leg. My husband has JB welded it a couple of times. We have been nursing it along, but it's only a matter of time. We have towels on the floor around it!! So I went to Lowe's yesterday--"just to look"--get some ideas, plan ahead. I want to replace the old washer and dryer with a full size, stackable, front loading, high efficiency washer and dryer & use the space the previous side-be-sides took up to put in some shelving (we need to create more space!!). So the salesman comes over to ask what I'm looking for and I told him. He said that if I was interested he had a good deal on a dryer. I really need the washing machine first....but I'll listen. He said they just reconfigured the store and the stock clerk accidently opened up the box for a Whirlpool Duet dryer, not realizing there was already one on the floor. There is nothing wrong with it at all. They just have two of them on the floor. The original price was $898, marked down to $808. But he said he could do quite a bit better. So I said, What is quite a bit better? He said $400!!!OMG!! 
: Uhhhh. Can't pass that up. He said he will periodically get a return from a delivery where there might be a tiny, little scratch but the customer rejected it. But there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. So I think we will go this route and try to wait out the washing machine!!!
I don't know why I never thought about it before, but I think I shall never buy full price appliances again. Unless, of course, something breaks and we just get stuck having to get something quick. But I was so thrilled after that whole deal yesterday. I was on a high almost for finding that kind of a deal. My husband hooked it up last night and we already put it to the test. Works great!!
Share your "deals" with me!!!!! And for those of you that have front loading, HE washer & dryers, what has your experience been, especially with the Whirlpool Duet brand? From some of the reviews I read online, some people love theirs and others have had problems. I guess we will see!!
