Santa brought us a surprise on Christmas Eve in the form of a broken washing machine. Got 15 years out of the Bosch washer, which is a miracle with our well water that eats pipes and anything metal. Since Bosch doesn't sell adult-sized washers in the USA any more and local repair folks don't want to touch them, it was time to put it out to pasture.
Not-Santa dropped over $2,600 on a new washer/dryer set on Boxing Day yesterday, after upgraded warranties, installation accessories, tax, etc. Because 2020 and the continuing constraints on large appliance supplies, we had to drop the coin on $$$$ premium units because all of the cheaper units are back-ordered for a month or more. In addition, we had to order from two different places, because nobody locally had both the washer and dryer in stock at the same location.
Not-Santa also dropped a surprise laundry room re-model on us, while the washer/dryer are out for a few days.....
