Friday Fiscals: Washer and dryer edition

Today we followed a lead on Craigslist to buy a two-year-old clothes washer and dryer set for a new house. The price was about half of what a new set would cost, so we’re pleased. We didn’t have a whole lot of time to get a set so we’re glad we got this deal.
