Bargain hunting!

Lindsey · 11-09-2009, 07:28 AM

Scott and I got some great deals this weekend when we didn't even know we were looking for anything! In time, we will be renovating the kitchen. The appliances have to be the first to go! They are just plain ugly! I happened to be browsing online and found a white dishwasher that was just a few years old for $50! I jumped on that one, we went to see it, paid, and will be picking it up later this week! So I posted our old dishwasher online to sell.
Later in the afternoon I came across a 9 year old black and white stove in great condition for $125! Couldn't pass it up so we went to look at it last night, paid, and will be picking it up tomorrow

So when we got home I decided I might as well put up ALL of our appliances for sale in case someone wants to take them together (they're ugly but at least they match!). This morning we were contacted by someone who wants the fridge, stove, and range hood. We weren't expecting a hit on it so soon so now we're scrambling for a fridge! Hopefully if they like it, they'll give us a week or two before they need to take it! I'm crossing my fingers to find a good deal on a fridge, and fast!

Sounds like you got some really good buys Lynsey! Good for you. I bet you won't have any problem selling your stuff either. A black and white stove? I don't think I've ever seen one, bet it's pretty.

Good job Lindsey! My last stove was black and white. It's just 2 yeas old and sitting in my garage. If you were close I'd give it to you! I TOLD you that you need to move to Texas

Wow!! It sounds like you got some really good deals!! Doesn't it make you feel good to know that you saved a lot of money? Good job!!

Paula, the part where the clock and dials are is black, the cooktop area is white, the door is black, and the bottom drawer is white

My mom has one similar but in almond and black. It makes it easier with other kitchen appliances too, since they can be black OR white!
Betsi, you're right! I should definitely move there

Except I'm really missing snow right now and if I were in Texas I'd know it wouldn't even be coming!
Diana, it makes me feel great to be saving so much money! Especially when Christmas is right around the corner! In the first place we thought we'd buy all new which would cost us at least $1000

I also just found some kitchen cabinet doors someone is selling that were brand new, only used for 6 months and then replaced. The doors are usually the expensive parts of the cabinets so Scott is trying to price that out now. The whole kitchen renovation might come faster than we thought!

I think this is fairly consistent with a the real world. Its crazy and IMO digusting that Man Utd. picking up Ronaldo for 12 million is now seen as a bargain. Or Arsenal 10m for Henry. Even if you buy a player well before his peak, if theyre off that standard youll be looking to pay at least 8m in FM2010.
