I just moved in my new town home last week and there is no Fridge....Does anyone know where to get a really cheap one or possibly free one??? We are living out of an ice chest and need something pretty quick.

What can I do next?

There's a Sears "scratch & dent" store in Addison (near Midway & Beltline area) where you can get brand new or slightly used appliances for cheap. Most have minor scratches or dents, but work great! I bought my dryer there 3 years ago and my parents buy most of their appliance there.

Just don't get one at Sears. We got one Kenmore fridge from Sears, it broke within a month. We lost food and some expensive liquid health supplements. They replaced it with another fridge, but because we didn't buy the extended warranty they didn't give us any money towards the food-even though I had receipts. They exchanged it for another fridge that never worked it was semi-cold. When I called the warranty people they just kept telling us give it more time to cool. After four days I demanded a full refund. We then bought a great fridge from home depot-LG. You can get 10% off at home depot using the card you will get from the coupon packet at the post office when you need a change of address form.

A., go to www.freecycle.org and look for a group in your area. you can post WANTED: or OFFER: for just about anything. It was actually started to keep things out of the landfill, but you would be amazed at the wonderful response people sometimes receive. Good luck and God bless you and your little family.

There is a place on McCart right off I-20 that is beside the McCart Thrift Shop. I believe it is Chip's Furniture. I've seen refrigerators there that aren't too bad. You could check Goodwill or the Salvation Army shop. Look in the phone book under Used Appliances, I bet there will be some shops there.

We bought a frig in Crowley at a used appliance store. I believe we got it for $100 or $150 and it has lasted a long time. I can't remember the name of the shop there. It was a small place off of Crowley Road.

You could also check the newspaper classified ads, Greensheet has used appliances and furniture. These are free small newspapers at Grocery Stores right by the doors when you come in or out of the store. Not all grocery stores have them. I usually see them at the big ones, like Kroger, Tom Thumb, Fiesta. We've put ads in there before. There is also another one called Thrifty Nickel and there may be others. Check those out.
