Ok, so I have 2 major needs this Holiday season and I would like to get them addresses for CHEAP....so, hopefully Black Friday deals. I actually have 3, but not sure the 3rd will be possible.....so here goes.

 

#1 - I need some high quality shelving for my basement. Long story short we have a small water issue that I would like to keep from becoming a major issue by getting everything NEATLY organized and off the basement floor. So, I need something high quality that will hold a good amount of weight (your normal storage totes filled with Holiday stuff, pictures and some BOOKS!!!) ;P . I have looked everywhere up til now and they are SUPER expensive and I would like to get a few so I can fully outfit the space. I saw Home Depot has a somewhat small one for $34.88 and from what I can tell that is about $30 cheaper than anywhere else. I would like something bigger and a little "nicer", but if that's what gets the job done and CHEAP.....then I'll do it. Anyone know of anywhere else?

 

#2 - Washer / Dryer. Ours is approaching 10yrs old and while not a "priority" if the price is right...I might be swayed. Best I can find is here at Sears Outlet (middle of page) (new in box):

I did see lowe's and home depot have slightly lower end (from reviews and specs) for slightly higher price, but they are a decent amount closer and prob easier to deal with should there be a problem. Thoughts?

 

 

# 3 _ I don't think this one is Black Fridayable....but I also need a whole new Garage Door Kit...IE....Door, Opener, Track..etc, etc, etc. .....and likely need it installed. DO places like this DO Black Friday!? ;P

 

Thanks for any help. With my 17 month old running me ragged I can't quite search the deals like I used to. I appreciate ANY help!

Lowes had the Samsung washer and dryer on sale last week. It was posted somewhere on here so maybe you can search for that post. I belive they were 540.00 each, they were also the steam set. HHgregg also had them at a good price last week. I have had a Samsung set for over a year now and love it. But I paid 750.00 each, that's why I noticed the price being so low:eek:

I did see a garage door opener in one of the ads but I don't remember which store it was in, check the sears ad and all the hardware store ads.

Thanks for the reply. yeah, I saw the opener, but I need everything.... the door and all. ha. Prob will only get a decent deal if I get them all togehter kind thing

I think I saw the ad you were talking about, but I think it was a couple models lower than the one I posted at Sears. I really WATCH the model numbers of things closely. The one I posted is one of the best I have seen..... but I tihnk it might be discountinued (hence lower price). Like I said, I might be swayed to stay local and go "big box" for convenience, but that deal at Sears Outlet is pretty SMOKIN' for a new in the box. A lot of times they only sell scratch and dent... etc

 

IE....here is the model machine on there website, and as a refurb going for $1,000: http://www.searsoutlet.com/d/inventory_details.jsp?cid=526&pid=80452&mode=buyUsedOnly&to=cart&pn=1&ps=10&disp=sel&ffmChannelDelModeInApp=BOTH&deals=No&zip=45322

 

NEW at Sears for $1234: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_02646912000P?blockNo=1&blockType=G1&prdNo=1&i_cntr=1321923003716

 

...one problem though. I can't seem to find much pricing EXCEPT for Sears! ha

Do you have an HHgregg near you. I thought the washer and dryer set in their ad (front page) was nice. I remember looking at shelving units in the ads last year, but have not paid attention this year. Try using the search feature in the Black Friday ad section. I love that search button!!

...ah man.... good tip. For some reason I am stuck on the "pictures". Something about "seeing" it and how I am trained to look for deals! haha. I will try that though.

 

I do have an HHG pretty close. Lemme go look at their ad

 

Thats a pretty good deal at Sears. Looks Good to me. ;)

Yeah, I think so too

Washer/Dryer combo looks like a great deal to me!

Things of note: ask Sears Outlet if you can swipe your Sears/Kmart Shop Your Way Rewards Card - I looked online for the answer but didn't see it right away.

Check with your local Electic company, some offer mail-in rebates if you purchase an energy star appliance. Gas/heating company might also if you go w/ Gas Dryer.

Go here to search the BF ads: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/search.php

Just type in Washer

It will pull up just washers, but also combos - what you want. There should be a little camera icon next to most listings, click on it, and it should pull up a picture to the item in the ad. hth

Any stores closing around you? shelving units like that are dirt cheap if you can find a place going out of business and is selling everything. And check to see if you have a Habitat store around you. They recycle stuff when people are doing demos - so you may find a garage door unit and the shelves if you call and ask.

Yeah, I have been scouring craigslist and things for store closures...etc. They all seem to have the typical "knick-knack" type shelves that won't really work all that well.

 

We have several Habitat re-stores in my general area, and I check there from time to time without much luck. Seems like mostly junk in this area (Dayton, OH)
