  1. Lately I follow the same process:

    - Research most reliable brands for that appliance type.

    - Look around a bit but ultimately land at Costco. Buy the basic, least digital model that meets our needs from Costco and the 5 year warranty. (In the case of today's dryer - large capacity.)

    - Schedule delivery. Pay from my appliances and home repairs savings account. Top that account back up over the next several months.

    - Rinse and repeat. Sigh.

  6. When economists talk about how today's generations don't have the money their parents do... this is part of it. Major purchases are no longer a one and done deal. They haven't been for a while.

    We're a family of 5 and we're getting close to needing a new appliance purchase every year. Ouch.
