I would choose to shop local but we seem to fall into the notion that we can save money by burning diesel, travelling to the nearest city and shop in some big retail store. I would much rather buy from a store and talk to a human being face to face. Especially if I have a problem with something we have purchased.northsider https://www.blogger.com/profile/00716743611909673869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-81972148814199231272022-12-18T05:54:43.426-07:002022-12-18T05:54:43.426-07:00I don't need to remind you that if you had use...I don't need to remind you that if you had used the local electrical shop and chosen from whatever they had in stock the machine would have been delivered, installed and up and running weeks ago and if, like mine, they would have taken the old machine away at the same time. I go to my local shop and choose the cheapest appliances they have because they all seem to do the same job and last the same amount of time regardless of what you spend. The only difference in cost appears to be that the cheaper ones maybe have less soundproofing. But then who stands and listens to a washing machine.

A friend of mine has one and no way could we get it sorted. I gave up on its 20 or so options where you have to push buttons until the program locks in or something, so now he gets a cold wash with almost no spin dry and he hangs things out sopping wet after a quick hand wringing.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-68470469084133178562022-12-17T20:23:48.807-07:002022-12-17T20:23:48.807-07:00Hurrah!

May I say Dave that was a very romantic Christmas present you bought for Mrs Northsider. Ladies don't really want perfume or lingerie, they want washing machines, ironing boards and rotary clothes dryers. You might have had it gift-wrapped though!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-60967500470194828822022-12-17T07:04:50.769-07:002022-12-17T07:04:50.769-07:00Lucky you Traveller.
