Last weekend I noticed that the agitator in the washing machine was not agitating too much. Upon further investigation, I discovered that the agitator was not agitating because it might be broken.
Susan and I went out today to see what a new (to us) washer might cost. We were hoping to keep it in the region of $200.00.
We drove up to Fred's Ding and Dent Center and found we could acquire an okay washer for around $350.00.
Then we drove to our old reliable "Go To" appliance warehouse, the Appliance Warehouse. While looking at their selection (lowest price $239.00) I got to talking with the guy there and in the course of our conversation, discovered that the agitator could be repaired.
After a detour to pick up the lawn mower from a servicing, we returned home and I set to work to figure out how to remove the agitator. Prior to doing it, I thought I had better run a load of laundry since I did not know how long the washer would be down.
Once my load of laundry was done, I pretty quickly figured out the agitator. I jumped in the car and returned to the Warehouse. The guy was prepared for me and had checked to make sure he had the right part.
They took the agitator to the back and returned in five minutes. For that, I happily paid them $50.00 and went home victorious.
To make sure, I grabbed the sheets off the bed and threw them in for a wash.
Suffice it to say that I am pretty pleased with me today!
