Lowe's appliance clearance

Lowe's is having their appliance clearance sale (the salesman said most stores are closing out year-end and floor models and scratch and dent). Plus free delivery and haul away after rebate (I think it is $79 or so, you get the rebate on a Visa debit card type thing)

 

A couple of days ago we got a new GE side by side fridge (ice maker, fun digital stuff on the door) 25.4 cf, originally $1298, marked $868, hubby talked salesman down to $580 + 70 for the two year extended warranty (gotta get this on the scratch and dent to be safe), then when cust serv rang us up they gave us another 10% off for opening a new lowe's acct (they wont all do this on clearance merch but our csr did- had to get a manager involved), and to top it off our receipt printed another rebate for our model to send in for $100 rebate! Yay!

 

They also had washers, dryers, dishwashers, over-range microwaves, etc. I think the selection will vary depending upon location. Always ask how much more they can take off at Lowe's- they are more willing to work with you than any place else we go!

actually, our store did have some front load washer and dryers, some were colors, I think I saw beige and marroon maybe? I cant remember brands or anything though since we were really shopping for a fridge. You might give it a shot, I think all the Lowe's will probably have different stuff- maybe one you want got dinged =)

Please tell me what strategy your husband used to negotiate! Our refrigerator has been slowly going out for the last five days. Repairman said yesterday it would be cheaper to replace it.

 

I ran to Lowe's in Arlington, TX as soon as I read your post and found several fridges on clearance and scratch/dent. However, the sales rep said that the prices marked were as low as they could go. I found the one i want but it's about $200.00 out of my price range right now (had to have my car towed and repaired last week - nervous about the old addage of things happening in 3's). The original price was $999, marked $849. After a lengthy conversation he asked me to wait, made TWO phone calls and said he could take off 10% but couldn't go any lower, that would make to total price about $932 with tax and extended warranty.

 

I need some guidance on how i can get him to go lower. They had probably 12-15 total refrigerators that were in this section of clearance and scratch/dent and the sales rep told me they had more of the clearance ones in the back just no room to put them out on the floor. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Never tried this on clearance....but there are multiple home depot coupons out there $40 off $400, $5 off $50, 10% off purchase. Lowes usually matches competitor Q's and these would help lower the cost.

Honestly, I don't know how my husband does it- I am usually ready to walk away! But he just does not give up. He will come up with something like "well, there is a pretty big dent over here, and this is wrong here, and I will pay this for it but no more". He will ask like 5 different people until he gets the answer he wants also. (the .01 cupboards we got at Home Depot took quite a few people and two managers) Our salesman actually did have to call someone too, my husband had told him 600 I think and the salesman said 650 and we said fine. I think sometimes it is the luck of the draw on who you get and how bad they want to get rid of them. Maybe you could go back at a different time of day when different people are working. I agree with the coupon thing too- Lowe's is huge on taking other people's coupons- Sears has appliance deals a lot too- maybe check for coupons for them. Good luck! =)

BTW- the salesperson saying the marked price is as low as they can go- I have never gone to Lowe's where they wouldn't go lower- maybe that person was new? Lowe's negotiates more than anyone else in my experience- and now that I think about it we were there on a Saturday afternoon when it was super busy and lots of people looking and they still negotiated.

I hope there are some fridges left when we come home from vacation, our fridge is dying and we really need a new one. Now I wish I wasn't on vacation just so I can save a few hundred!

Oh well maybe I'll get lucky and there will still be one or two left. I really want a bottom freezer.
