Buying new appliances, am I missing something?

Hello all,

Today I'm about to make a big purchase with Tesco Direct for a fridge freezer, washing machine and LCD TV. Before I commit I'd like to know if I'm missing out on any deals.

Using price comparison websites Tesco Direct have come out the best for what I need. But I was wondering if anyone recently purchased any of the above and got a good deal. I'm not looking to spend more then £1000 for everything, and every penny saved helps. My main requirements are that the TV is a minimum of 32" and the fridge freezer is frost free.

Any ideas? Thanks :smiley:

  • :D Hi, have you checked out offer of the day? Everything we have purchased recently has been from one of their offers - Empire direct usually and had no issues with anything.

    Thanks.:beer: I'd never heard of offer of the day before so I'm going to look through that now. I checked Empire Direct but found them a tiny bit more expensive if you didn't want the basic models.
  • Sorry if i am a bit slow, where do i find offer of the day please?
  • There is a 10% discount code for Empiredirect you will find it on offeroftheday

    I have just ordered an integrated washer and dishwasher from them last night at very good prices

    I've found a washing machine I want there and with the 10% it's a good deal but only if I can find free delivery. I'm hunting!

    Quidco have some deal on at the moment if you spend over £100 at Tesco Direct, so if you do go with them make sure you go through Quidco.

    I use Quidco. That deal is £10 for 100 people randomly selected when you buy something over £100 at Tesco Direct. Don't like my chances but I'll keep my fingers crossed! Other than that I'll make do with the 3%.

    Thanks all. :T
