New Toy

My poor Washer finally bit the biscuit.
Called the repair guy, something about bearing and basket and will cost around 400$.
Don't think so!!!
So of I went in search for a new Washer...i didn't want to pay an arm and a leg but it still had to be something decent. I did some comparison shopping and at last went to a store that had no HST  (14%) on major Appliances.
And there she was, a beautiful red , reduced by 300$ plus the 100$ HST because it was the floor model.
SOLD !!
Doesn't go with my white dryer, but i don't care. I just want it to work.
Now if i could just have one month without something big breaking down.
 Between car repairs and appliances it has been a costly few months. But at least it broke after my D/H got his new Job , so i have to look on the bright side.
Isn't she perty ;)

She's a beauty. When I first moved here we had one downstairs. Nothing like having your own.

Congratulations on your new red washing machine. Let's hope it gives you many years of service. There's nothing like a new appliance to make the job a little lighter. I hope you'll have the cleanest laundry ever.

What a beauty! Love the colour. Wouldn't go with my other bog-standard white appliances either but it's a gorgeous red.

Here's to a breakdown free 2011 now!
