52. And all of those appliances may be purchased used on Craigslist for nothing.

Mar 2017

Five years ago, I got a free dishwasher on Craigslist. It was a year old. A person in the neighborhood redid their kitchen and changed all the appliances. Put the old ones on CL for free.

In the past two years (at a new rental), bought a used side-by-side fridge for $75, an over-the-range microwave for $50 and another dishwasher for $75 including installation and delivery.

In general, if you need a new appliance - especially a microwave - check CL. College kids are buying those things and selling them in next-to-new condition all the time. Neighbors have appliances in great shape that the sell when they remodel.

And all kinds of appliances get left at the curb as a free giveaway to anyone with a way to haul it home. Again, check Craigslist.

You can get a brand new coffee maker for $10.

Faux News idiots.
