In need of extra money

Fortunately when my fridge broke down my son bought a new one. It is large and magnificent but he got it on special and it was a good deal. However, when he eventually leaves my home he will take it and buy me a smaller one as I really would not then need one so large. I guess that I would have to put it on my credit card = or part of it if I needed a new appliance. Most of us have these problems as machines do not last forevern unfortunately

some machines simply reach " end of life " you fix one part then another breaks down, sorry friend but it might be more expensive in the long run to buy a new one or buy newer second hand that still has more use life. I have a similar problem with my car, I still have a few month left till i need to change the timing belt otherwise if it snaps and it's running, the damage would be much more expensive, now the driver is complaining of wet car mats, i know its clog in the aircon tubes, I have not yet saved anything for maintenance cause it's all being eaten up by family and house expenses

It is not wise to repair a machine repeatedly. It costs much. Better you bye a new washing machine. Don't waste money for an old thing.

I think it is wise to purchase a new machine instead of spending repeatedly for its repair. But, of course, it is up to you to take the final decision.

yes i know what you feel right now, sometimes it's hard to decides when you haven't much money to spend. i am suggesting you to replace your washig maching rather than repair it. you can try to find the cheaper one but you can get a good specification.

I think you should change your washing machine. Repairing it need a lot of money, so better to buy a new one. You can sell it first, and then you need some additional money to get a new one for you. About to find extra money, I am not sure about it, but I can suggest you any, but you can try to get it by joining online money making programs such as microworkers, mturk, or iwriter. Good luck.

Personally there are times when something breaks down, that you can only hope you can somehow find the money to replace it for something New or newer instead. Many times you can often find yourself spending just as much in repairs. Not sure of around there, but here you can find items like this used for quite reasonable that might be a cheaper alternative as well.

In the past, whatever was broken I used to wait until I could find a secondhand one. I've been lucky that in the past couple of years nothing has broken so I have been able to save up in case something does. (Of course, it helps that I don't own much - the appliances came with the apartment and the landlord fixes them)

I am sorry to hear that you are having so many problems with your wading machine. I am with the other users, that you would be better off buying a new washer, as by the time you spend money getting it fixed, you could be spending enough to buy a new one. I hope that one way or the other, you will have a washer that works, Take care!

We have had times when we've had something to break down on us when we don't have any kind of money to replace the thing that has broken down for us. In those kinds of situations, I find that I have to do the one thing that I don't like to do and that is to buy something with financing. Now we are just about to be out of credit card debt, finally, and it is my hope that after those bills are paid off that we will be able to start putting money back for incidentals like a washing machine or plumbing problems or whatever.

That is one thing that I would like to avoid spending on, but if things just get broken, then there's nothing left to do but either repair it or buy a new one, depending on the extent of the damage. Well, if I really don't have the money and I need something really important, I ask my mom's help. I wouldn't want my in laws know about it.

Hi Marguicha It can happen with anyone, and yes of course I have face such kind of situation one or more time in my life. At that time we just can wait for proper time when we get the money and replaced that thing. I hope you will get enough money for your washing machine.. Best of luck.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i can understand your situation very well and i think it is really unfortunate for u to get fixed the washing machine again and again and i think it is high time that u sell it to someone or else if it is breaking down more often within the warranty period then u should not be charged a penny if it requires any service. What say?
