Cindy Clark! Come on Down! You have won a NEW RANGE!
Yup, the price was right. I was playing the players. Sears started with their 15% off sale. Then they through in the 10% off if you sign up for their credit card. This brought the Stainless steel model into the picture. Still about $100 over my limit once tax was included. So, I thought I would see what I could do with this number. I called a few local places to see if they would beat it. Apparently that number was pretty low and only one would "play" with me. They knocked $10 off the sears prices (saying that was below cost for them and they would lose money, but they had a price guarantee and had to do it). So, I thought I saw a free ship thing on Sears's website so I decided I would go with sears. Thought the extra $10 was worth it to have it shipped here and not be responsible for damage en route. I then realized the free shipping was INSTEAD of the 10% off. I decided then to go with the OTHER place offering it for $10 less. Then my little recall button went off and I remembered seeing a price match guarantee thing on the Sears website. I had nothing to lose, so I called their 1-800 number and brought them the New England appliance stainless price. They told me then that their policy was to take off the difference of their price PLUS an additional 10%. WAHOO! The range was on sale for $1657. The NEA price came in $10 lower than the sears CARD price of $1492. SO, the difference was taken between 1657 (listed sale price) and 1482. Plus another 10%. In the end, all said and told, I got my convection GE range with lower baking drawer, tri-ring cook top element and 5th warming element for $1399. ($1317 before tax). That is even lower than the $1331 quoted to me by sears initially for the black model. Wahoo!
