...several years back we had a freezer go bad and I had to replace it really soon or we were going to lose everything in it. Went to the Home Depot and found one we liked. They didn't have one in stock so I told em I would take the floor model. They wouldn't sell it to me because they needed to keep it on the floor in case somebody came in and wanted to look at it.

...ya won't sell it to me because somebody else might want to look at it? Gimmee a Brake.

Kitchen Appliances (Home Update)

I have a 10% Off (max $200) coupon from Home Depot that expires on March 9th, so my wife and I made kitchen appliance decisions today. The appliances are the fridge/freezer, dishwasher, gas range and microwave. Our first attempt failed. On-line, we found Whirlpool appliances that came with a $500 discount. But when we tried to place the order we found both the refrigerator and dishwasher to be out of stock. I thought the store staff could probably override this given that we were prepared to wait months, so we headed to the store. No dice. If something is out of stock, Home Depot will not let customers go onto a backorder list.

We came home and my wife did new research. We switched to Samsung and my wife found a new set she liked. She placed the order and . . . another fail. The microwave was out of stock. She replaced it with a different Samsung microwave and . . . nope. The issue this time was that Samsung has its own 10% manufacturer discount and we couldn't add our Home Depot discount. I ran into this last year though, when we bought the washer/dryer. The store staff just rang up the purchase, then had us go through the checkout line to take our additional discount.

This means we'll be returning to Home Depot tomorrow, hopefully placing our order and getting the price we want.

Prices are very high. We'll be spending more than $3,300.
