AW - I'm on a deal roll!

So I posted a while ago about how hubby and I got a GREAT deal on our new couch.  We just got an even BETTER deal on our new fridge that I can't wait to get on Saturday.  Bought the floor model which was already cheaper but talked the price down another $100 because there was a serious dent in the side from them moving it I assume (but will be hidden by cupboards eventually).  Add an appliance "cash for clunker" rebate and it is so rediculously cheap that I'm almost amazed at my bargaining skills.  :-P 

I'm also jazzed because although our new fridge is going to have to temporarily live in our dining room until we have the $ to remodel the kitchen, we're going to temporarily install our dishwasher that we've had for a good 2 years and haven't been able to put in due to lack of space in the spot vacated by the old fridge.  I've lived for 6 years without a dishwasher and I am sooooooooo ready for this!!

DH thinks I'm sort of bargian queen because we hit up a Kohls sale where all of the stuff we bought was 80% off (gotta love kohls' sales at the end of the season!) so we saved a boatload that day too. 

Ok ladies - what is your best bargain hunting tip? 

Re: AW - I'm on a deal roll!

  • NICE!!! I wish I was a good bargainer....
  • I don't really have a tip - just saying congrats on all the good luck!  Send some my way!

  • You go hot roller! Stick out tongue
  • You lived 6 years without a dishwasher?!?!?!? WHOA! You deserve a medal. I'm having a hard enough time living 6 months without a garbage disposal!

  • Wow, I don't have any bargain-hunting tips like that, I clearly need to learn some from you :P

    That is awesome though, so exciting!

    Oh I do kind of have one- I use www.ebates.com for all my online shopping. It's totally legit and you get a percentage back from SO many stores.

     I LOVE ebates - I got some stuff back (not much though) on wedding purchases! 

  • Yep 4 years in this house and 2 in the place I rented before I bought my place.  I am so sick of hand washing dishes and am so unbelievably happy about not having to do as many anymore.    It'll be lovely to just rinse and put them right in - a bit later, voila!  Done!

    That's great! My big check from them comes after Christmas because I buy everything for the holidays online. Otherwise it's not that much :P
