Sorry, I posted about the rebate and then left the board! Thanks Jaqueline for jumping in there.
Any one looking at the rebate should also note that Costco had free delivery to the room of your choice and free haul away so if you are a member this can save you even more. They have most (not all) of the products the other stores do and you can actually order on line. No Air Miles though.
Home Depot will price match and sometimes give you 10% off. If you are good at haggling (which I am not, I hate having to do that) you can sometimes talk them into free delivery. You just have to take proof of the price in with you. I had a friend break this all down for me
Remember, the rebate is
only in Ontario and only until March 2020. It is only up to $500 per appliance but it will
apply to each appliance you buy
I need a fridge too but that can wait so I have my fingers crossed that Black Friday or boxing day might have some extra, extra discounts or bonuses LOL
It also applies to Smart Themostats like NEST. I think there are company specific incentives (Enbridge is one for sure) for those as well so you can get them fairly cheap with the rebate rolled in
