Best Buy Launches Appliance Sale

If you didn’t but a new refrigerator or range in December, you missed the best month of the year to make that purchase according to a report from Consumers Union, publishers of Consumer Reports magazine. This year, though, Best Buy Co. Inc. (NYSE: BBY) is giving you a second chance.

The company better known for consumer electronics (smartphones, TVs, computers, etc.) is selling major appliances for up to 25% off the regular price including free delivery on higher priced items plus financing options. Even though most consumers buy a new appliance only when the current one fails, this might be a good time to consider updating that 15-year old refrigerator that’s making a funny noise now and then.

Best Buy and Samsung have teamed up to offer a free Samsung 32-inch LED 1080p, HD smart TV (UN32J5205AFXZA) when customers buy Samsung kitchen or laundry appliances totaling at least $2,499. For example, a 28.2-cubic foot 4-door Apps refrigerator in stainless steel (RF28HMELBSR) that regularly sells for $3,599.99 is on sale for $2,599.99, a savings of 28%. Delivery is free, but there may be an installation charge to hook up the thru-the-door ice and water dispenser. Best Buy also charges a fee to haul away the old fridge. And there is that free TV.


A matching washer-dryer set from Whirlpool includes sale pricing on the appliances themselves plus a manufacturer’s incentive of $100 to $250 in the form of a pre-paid Mastercard. The deal is available on several sets (and may be available on some washers or dryers separately) including a Duet 4.5-cubic foot 12-cycle high-efficiency steam front-loading washer (WFW95HEDC) for $899.99, a $300 savings (25%) off the regular price. Delivery is free.

The matching electric dryer, a Duet 7.4-cubic foot 10-cycle steam model (WED95HEDC) is offered at the same price and savings. The gas dryer cost $999.99, also a $300 savings.

The Average American Is Losing Their Savings Every Day (Sponsor)

If you’re like many Americans and keep your money ‘safe’ in a checking or savings account, think again. The average yield on a savings account is a paltry .4% today, and inflation is much higher. Checking accounts are even worse.

Every day you don’t move to a high-yield savings account that beats inflation, you lose more and more value.

But there is good news. To win qualified customers, some accounts are paying 9-10x this national average. That’s an incredible way to keep your money safe, and get paid at the same time. Our top pick for high yield savings accounts includes other one time cash bonuses, and is FDIC insured.
