What is it with us Midwesterners and our deal-bragging? You know: upon receiving a compliment we gloat about the gasp-worthy low price we got it for, unsolicited. Perhaps its because we fancy ourselves pro deal hunters.
But ourExtreme Warehouse Salethis Saturday and Sunday is no Macys clearance rack. Im talkin big-ticket items at huge discounts: you need to prepare a bit. The savings are so hot, all sales are final.
Luckily for you, Ive compiled the secrets of the pros tips that will prepare any appliance rookie for the big league.
Here are some Extreme Sale pros, lined up before the sale.
Before the sale
Dont be a fool; Use this tool.
Measure your space
Dont learn the hard way: there is no standard in appliance sizes. Use a measuring tape on the available space not the existing appliance and write down dimensions to bring to the sale.
Also, measure the width of the doorways and staircases the appliance will need to travel through.
Know your fuel type
Youll need to know whether you have a gas or electric hookup when buying a dryer, a range or a cooktop.
Consider your hinges
For example, some refrigerators on sale will be left hinge only. Wouldnt it be terrible to find a great deal on a fridge only to get it home and not be able to open it? Also know what side you want the hinges on a front-load washer and any type of dryer, in case theres an option.
Do some research
Well have more than 2,000 appliances available at the start of the sale, so have something in mind to avoid frustration. The best tip? Know what you like and dont like about your existing model. Check outour Web sitefor more ideas on what features are important to you.
Get preapproved
You MUST pay for your purchase at the time of sale, though we certainly have financing options to help you pay. Save time bygetting approved online at home. Just make sure to bring in your approval slip with your new account number for our files.
Also, even if youre financing the purchase, you must pay the sales tax at the time of sale.
The day of the sale
Bring a hauling vehicle
Usually, we offer free delivery on purchases $499 and above, but this sale is anything but usual. Our warehouse is full of products, so we encourage customers to take their purchases with them the day of the sale. Well help you load it up and everything.
If you do choose to have it delivered, its $75 and you must take delivery within 14 days.
Know your schedule
Well arrange for delivery and any installation for built-in appliances (available for additional charges) at the time of sale. Well call you the day before the delivery with an AM/PM estimate and our crew can call you before they arrive if you need to meet them at your house.
Pack a stroller
Our warehouse is a warehouse. Its clean and safe, but its also big and crowded and without a play area. Strollers work well to keep small children nearby when youre shopping the selection.
After the sale
Receive delivery/install time estimate
Youll receive a call with an AM/PM estimate the day before your scheduled delivery and/or install.
Apply for rebates
You could qualify foreven more savings by rebate. Once you receive your product, you can fill in the serial number (the delivery crew can help you locate this) on your rebate forms and submit them promptly, as they expire.
Dont waste your investment because you lack product knowledge.
Read your manual
Knowing your new product can help you save time and improve the quality of your cooking and cleaning. Stow it somewhere memorable to refer to for troubleshooting and general operation questions.
Dont ignore accessories
If you get a dishwasher, buyrinse aid to help dry your dishes. If you buy a smooth-top electric range, youll wantcooktop cleaner to keep it looking new. The water filter in your fridge will need to be replaced every six to 12 months. And please, for the sake of your breathing, dont overstuff your vacuum bags!
