New Fridge!! :)

Last night after work we went to Trail Appliances to check out their "big sale"! They had tons of appliances that were on sale but even with their sale the cheapest fridge they had was over $1250 and it wasn't even close to what we were looking for. So off to Future Shop we went. We decided to just go ahead with the Samsung bottom freezer we had originally liked. Unfortunately the Samsung fridge we wanted was discontinued and they only had the floor model left to sell and we might have bought it, if it wasn't damaged!! The plastic crisper drawers were broken and there were dents on the front of it - they would have sold it to us for a really good price but we didn't think it was worth it. They had the "new" model there which almost looked the same but had black trim instead of grey and no side handle on the door but it was $700 more!! YIKES!! NO thanks!!

I picked out a different fridge I liked, it was an LG bottom freezer. The bottom freezer part is a sliding drawer instead of a swinging door and has a slide out shelf in the freezer as well. This fridge is a energy star (so it takes less energy to run) and the shelves on the fridge door are adjustable (where they weren't on the Samsung). It also comes with a two year warranty instead of a one year. It was then next lowest price fridge they had ($1399) but it was also discontinued and the only one left was the floor model. So we thought we would go to The Brick because they also sell LG and they price match. So after dealing with the salesperson and finding out that they can get the same fridge we told him the price that Future Shop was selling it for so he made some calls. It turns out that they don't price match if the product is discontinued!! And they wanted $400 more for the same fridge but theirs would come in a box! I didn't think it was worth it to pay and extra $400 for a box and the floor model LG that Future Shop had was in pretty good shape (just needed to be cleaned) plus because it was a floor model the salesman at Future Shop said he would give us an additional 10% off!! So back to Future Shop we went!

By now I'm starved cause we didn't even have supper before we went shopping and I'm getting grouchy from going to all these stores. We bought the LG from Future Shop with the extended warranty (that the salesman also gave us a deal on) - my hubby dropped me off at home, picked up his truck and headed back to get our new fridge!! I stayed home and moved the old fridge out of it's spot, cleaned all the bunnies from behind the fridge and grabbed a bite to eat! By the time we got the new fridge in it's place it was already 8:00pm!! I fed my hubby and started cleaning! :) By 9:30 I was transferring all my food over -- I love my new fridge!! It sticks out a little further then out old one (it's deeper) so it kinda looks funny cause the counter is farther back then the fridge but it still looks good! I am quite surprised at the size of the freezer though, it looked so much bigger then our old one but I find that it takes way more organizational skills to stack everything in the new freezer. It seems a lot smaller - I guess it's time for us to get a deep freeze and a stove to match the rest of our stainless steel appliances!! ;)
