Just had a frustrating morning refrigerator shopping. Not that we need one, but we could use one more energy efficient and less ugly, that doesn't lean forward and is the same color as the other appliances in the kitchen. And that doesn't make a ton of noise that you can hear while watching TV in the room above

I bought my fridge (which is large and white and pretty) for around $400 at Lowe's. $450 if you count delivery and installation. Granted, that was 4 years ago, but I don't think our economy has gone THAT far down the tubes... :) I hate sales people...

What are the names of your classes? Hopefully, they'll get better?

Nah, I don't think the economy has gone down the tubes that much, they were just trying to upsell me something ridiculous. A standard fridge isn't too much more than what you paid. The energy star models tend to be more expensive, which irritates me- they should have some lower end models so that people who don't want to spend ridiculous amounts of money can help the environment too. I just hate the weird little aspects of appliances that make them cost so much more and are totally unnecessary. Like a dryer with a storage drawer. Or a fridge with internet access and a TV (What, I'm too lazy just to carry my laptop into the kitchen if I want either of those things while I cook)? I guess if people will pay for them... I just hate high pressure sales people... And any store with no prices on it's stuff is automatically suspicious if you ask me
