Many of you have read the below story, but what I also want to pass on is this. A couple weeks ago our dryer started making this banging, knocking noise. Matt tried to figure it out but he didn’t want to have to remove the large drum inside. So he called Zach at Complete Appliance and asked if they could fix it. By that afternoon Matt had the dryer back in the house and hooked up. Not only that but it only cost about $70 bucks for parts and labor. We got all the rollers or rubber bearings replaced. They were causing our dryer to thump around. So not only can you save a ton at Complete Appliance but you can also get some high quality , inexpensive repairs done! Quick too!IMG_2394

As you all know we moved into an older home a little over 2 weeks ago.  All the appliances are older, but seemed to be working when we bought the home. The refrigerator was older, and was nasty inside. But after  a good scrub down it was fine.  Matt and I would have loved to have gone out and bought a brand new one, all pretty and new, but it was not in our budget to do so.  Well only 3 days after we moved in, we realized that the refrigerator quit working.  I woke up to start breakfast only to give my kids warm milk….Yuck.  So we had to toss all the food and start looking at our options.

We needed to see how much it would be to fix the old one or see what it would cost for a new one.  We wanted to upgrade to a stainless steel  in the future….we went to go look at them but I was only disappointed realizing they were more than I could afford.

About 2 years ago my dryer broke again…Matt had patched it together over and over but it was time to get a new one.  My good friend Lisa told me about her neighbor Zach at Complete Appliance who repairs, and sells used appliances.  I was a little worried you know the sterio type that goes along with used appliances.  Lisa assured me that Zach was honest, trustworthy and sold quality work.  So we bought a large capacity dryer, for a fraction of the price of a new one.  It has been over two years and it still works great.  Since then we have gone to Zach for all our appliances and we have been VERY happy with him.

So….we called him up to see what he had in stock.  It must have been our lucky day, he told us he had a brand new high end refrigerator in that had a leak.  It was new from the showroom, but was now considered used do to the repairs.   It was  $1,700.00 new Zach fixed it up good as new, and sold it to us for $800.00.  It is SO nice, once again if I had not bought things from him in the past I might have been worried about buying a repaired appliance.  But we have been so happy with everything else we did not even hesitate!

I asked Zach if it was ok to do a post on my blog about my thrifty deal.  (still good) Not only did he say yes but he wanted to offer all of you 10% off anything in the store, or  off of Labor, or Free Delivery a $25 value to the Nampa – Caldwell area. All you have to do is tell him A Thrifty Mom sent you.  All of his appliances come with a 6 month warranty you can click here to view his web site and read how to get a lifetime warranty. Remember that he gets new items in the store weekly, so it is always  a good idea to check back to see that is new in the store that week.  You may just get lucky like me!

So thanks again to Zach for a very thrifty deal!
