#MoneyWin
Maddge– “My washing machine died this week-called someone to fix it and they charged $125 to come out. Turns out it was the drain pump and they would charge $489 to fix it parts and labor. Similar lg washer is 1000 at Home Depot. Watched some you tube videos, turned out the drain pump is $26 on Amazon. Took almost 2 hrs to install, but it was not complicated. Those two hours (plus the three 10 minute you tube videos are either worth $489 or $1000. Total cost to fix $151.01 plus up to 3 hrs of time. Either way, it’s a #moneywin for me.”
