????? A Prudential Unlimited Quick Tips Article by Chelsea Moore
Upgrading appliances is an easy way to give a fresh new look to your kitchen but it can certainly be rough on the pocket book! This week we are taking a look at some cost effective alternatives and the types of places you can find some great deals!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Craislist.org
Scour craigslist.org for local deals. Discount stores advertise there as well as people looking to upgrade to something better in their own kitchens. This is especially great for those of us with ancient appliances looking to upgrade to nicer, all black appliances instead of stainless steel. Make sure to take a look in the FREE section as well, you never know where a great kitchen table, chairs, or more will pop up, so check back often! CLICK HERE

Visit your local appliance stores ?Scratch & Dent Section?. A few scratches and dents can knock a huge chunk out of that price tag! The best part is a lot of the scratches and dents you find are in a place where you won?t even see them, especially when you put the appliance into place in your home. Even if the scratch or dent is visible, you might be able to fix it for cheap! Home improvement stores sell appliances markers in a variety of colors and they work similarly to a paint pen from the craft store. Just sweep over the scratches with your appliance pen, let dry and repeat until you can?t see the scratch anymore.

For Sale!
Watch for sales and additional discounts! Most appliance and large home improvement stores have sales for each holiday (or any random time) and often times on top of the sale price there are additional discounts in place. Keep an eye out for Energy Star and manufacturer discounts when you are in the store. Appliances, when not bought on a whim, can be deeply discounted just by spending the time to look at all your local stores, what kind of discounts they consistently offer and learn if that store price matches. Pricing matching plus discounts could save you even more money so keep an eye out.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Store Cards + a little planning = Savings!
Store cards often offer discounts on products over a certain amount. Figure out where the best deal is going to be, save up all the money needed for those items and open a store card. The interest rates are often high on these cards but if you purchase your items at a discount and immediately pay it off you can save that much more. Additional ?sign up bonuses? are also available. Be careful though, you are dealing with your personal credit, these alternative need to be carefully planned, but the savings are definitely worth it. Some places to start are Ikea, Jordan?s Furniture, and Home Depot!

No Tax, No Brainer!
Wait for a tax free weekend! This year Massachusetts will be having tax free weekend, August 11 & 12. Taxes on the pricey items really just add to the pain of that final bill. Shopping on that tax free weekend will add to those savings instead!
