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.
