Well if you must waste the day shopping for new laundry equipment make sure the store has toys for boys as well
. Like that new H/T leather recliner!!
That's what I did when we needed a new dryer! We went to get the dryer, and came home with it, and my first DVD player! Of course, we had to stop several places to get a couple of movies on the way home too. It was a great day. Then I had to get up early for the dryer to be delivered, and then the ductwork under the utility room fell apart, so I had to go into the crawlspace and redo it. It turned out the dryer vent had been dumping a fair share of the lint and stuff inside the crawl space for years without us knowing it, and it took all day to get it all sucked up, bagged, and the new duct run. All in a space about 2" too low to sit up in, unless I wanted to put my head in between the boards!
It was about 95 degrees too, and that made it even better.
