08/13/2019: 7 Ways to Save on New Appliances

Shelling out big bucks for a new appliance hits the budget pretty hard. But you can save money on new appliances — if you know how to shop for them. Check out these seven ways to save before you head out to buy that new washer and dryer pair, dishwasher, fancy fridge, stove, or oven.

1. Buy Last Year's Model 

If you don't mind owning last year's model, you can shave hundreds of dollars off of your appliance purchase. Best time to shop: September and October, when stores are under pressure to clear space for the new arrivals.

2. Shop the Scratch and Dents

A small scratch or dent could become your best friend if you're on a tight budget. Ask the sales associate if there are any damaged appliances for sale. Then survey the damaged models to decide what you are willing to live with. Even the smallest blemish can net big savings.

3. Buy Only What You Need

Have you ever noticed how the most expensive appliance models are typically the first ones that you come to in the store? That's no coincidence. To keep yourself from falling for the latest bells and whistles, make a list of what you need and possibly what brand you prefer before you venture into the stores. Then buy the cheapest model that meets those needs. Just remember: That refrigerator with the built-in TV isn't going to keep your food any colder.

4. Do a Trade-In

It's no secret that trading in your car can save you money on a new car purchase, but did you know that you can sometimes do the same thing with your appliances? Check with appliance dealers in your area to see if any accept trade-ins. Then find out how much your current appliance is worth. It could just be your ticket to a bargain.

5. Shop the Sales

If you find something you like but you're not thrilled with the price, ask a sales associate when your pick is scheduled to go on sale. Waiting a week or two could be all it takes to reduce your purchase price by as much as 25 percent. Or wait to buy until a holiday weekend, like Memorial Day or Labor Day, when appliances are often discounted for a short time.

6. Look for a Package Deal

If you need to buy several appliances at once, like a washer and dryer or all new appliances for your kitchen, an appliance package could be your biggest source of savings. Retailers frequently bundle appliances to boost sales, and these packages can offer significant savings over the price of purchasing each item individually.

7. Buy a Floor Model

 Do you mind if your new appliance comes with a box? If not, think about buying a floor model. You'll enjoy the same warranty that you'd get with a new-in-box item, without the new-in-box price. Sacrifice a little cardboard and save a lot.

03/13/2019: Spring Home Care Checklist

  • Inspect Home Exterior – Winter can take a toll on your house, so it’s a good idea to inspect any damage it has caused. Check for damaged roof shingles, damaged chimney, damaged siding, and rotting wood trim around the windows. Repair sooner than later.
  • Check Hose Faucets For Freeze Damage – Turn the water on and place your thumb or finger over the opening. If you can stop the flow of water, it is likely the pipe inside the home is damaged and will need to be replaced. While you’re at it, check the garden hose for dry rot.
  • Clear Away Dead Plants & Leaves – Spring is the time to clear away any leftover leaves or dead branches you missed in the fall. Clear your yard and areas around the house and get them ready for new spring growth. Plant new flowers to increase your home’s curb appeal.
  • Clean Out Gutters and Downspouts – Clear away any debris build up from the winter season roof runoff.
  • Check and Service Air Conditioning – Change the filter, check hose connections for leaks, and make sure the drain pans are draining freely. In addition, vacuum any dust that has settled on the unit and connections; over time it can impact the air conditioner’s effectiveness. Hire an air-conditioning specialist if needed. It’s better to do this in the spring before summer hits and service repair workers get too busy and up their prices.
  • Inspect Attic – Search for signs of colonizing insects or animals. Also, vigorously search for mold which will look like gray or black blotches. Proper insulation and good ventilation will slow mold growth. Take care of this sooner than later as mold will spread quickly in the warmer months ahead.
  • Inspect Basement – Basements are prone to dampness and insects. Dampness suggests inadequate ventilation and the need for a dehumidifier. Inspect the base of concrete walls. If you have cracks that start from the bottom up then there’s a sign of water damage. In this case, hire someone to come out and assess the problems and possible solutions. Also, check for exposed wood framing for termites. If you see the slighted bit of tunneling in the wood, call a pest control company immediately.
  • Check and Run Your Gas/Battery Powered Lawn Equipment – Make sure your outdoor power equipment is ready for summer use. Clean equipment and sharp cutting blades will make yardwork easier.
  • Ready Your Grill – Inspect and get your barbeque ready for the upcoming BBQ season!
