Ever since we moved into the house we made a checklist of things we wanted to change or update, and a few of those things were our kitchen appliances. We got the dishwasher first, then did so many other things around the house we kept putting off the stove and refrigerator. Well, for the past couple of weeks we've been deciding on what new stove to get and then decided we really wanted a new refrigerator first, SO we did lots of shopping around and then just happened to browse Craigslist and happened to find one of the ones we were looking at! It is only a year old, and a fraction of the cost! Brand new it cost around $2,000 and we got it for less than $500...DEAL ALERT! They were selling it so cheap because they had actually won it in a Lowes' survey a year ago, and now they were moving and their new house already had a new refrigerator. Score! So, Thursday night Cindy and Thomas came over to help us go pick it up and then Thomas came back last night to help Greg switch it out with our old one. Unfortunately, our measurements were slightly off, and it wouldn't fit under our cabinets, but luckily Greg and Thomas are two of the handiest men I know, so they simply sawed and sanded the trim of the cabinet and it was able to fit perfectly. I'm SO glad to have a side-by-side instead of our old one and this one has so much more room which is nice. Next up is our stove, which we will get in a few weeks, we figure we'll wait until things calm down a bit considering we'll be having a baby in the next few days =)
I forgot to take a picture of the old one, but I did find a picture of the kitchen...
In with the new...
