I was needing some things and the wife was wanting a new washer/dryer combo so we made a trip to Lowes today..The sales people were obnoxious to say the least, I was looking at floor,the salesman asked what I was looking for,,I showed him a piece I had brought with me,,still had Lowes sticker on back,,he stood flat footed and argued Lowes never sold it, so we went to appliances,,wife found the set she was looking at online,,they were $160 higher in store than online and store would not match their own price. So I decided to just go home and order everything online,,make them deliver it for free,,,,went online ,found all my items,,checked total,,checked tax,,everything right,,placed my order,,, when I recieved e-mail conformation LOWES had charged my credit card $130 more than my order total, so i spent an hour on the phone with LOWES corporate,,transfered from person to person,,,NOT ONE OF THEM,,,could explain why,,so they credited me back the overcharge,,makes one wonder how many people a day they overcharge that does not get caught

I did purchase an extended 3 year warranty that states it starts after the original 1 year so that gives me 4 total,,price was not bad,,$59 a machine,,being Maytag the motor and such already had a 10year but the extended covers those darn perky motherboard and such that seam to go out on modern stuff.
The fun part of this is,,a person did not overcharge my card,,their online check system on their company website did.
Every appliance in my house; 2 Refrigerators, 2 Freezers, washer dryer, stove, comes from Lowes.
They delivered and hauled off old one for FREE, plus they give 10% discount for military.
They will also give zero interest for one year if you use a Lowes credit card in most cases.
Sears, Home Depot, Best buy will not haul away for free; $100-150 to do so. No military discount, plus Lowes had the Lowest price.
Your Lowes must have hired some ex-government workers judging by their attitude.
Maytag went out of business at least 15 years ago. One of the conglomerates bought the name, & the machines with that name are made in Mexico or China in the same plants that make all the others.

"The discount is available to all veterans on major patriotic holidays including Veterans Day, Memorial Day and Independence Day. We're also one of only a few retailers that provides an everyday discount to active-duty, National Guard, Coast Guard and reservists, as well as retired and service-connected disabled service members, and their spouses."

I guess I am lucky:

Us too. We buy from Lowes for our houses and rentals. Never one problem with them.Better prices then all their competitors too. We go to Delaware for tax free shopping. It is only 35 minutes from our home, so it doesn't cost a lot in gas either.
But doesn't mean I won't ever. Nothing is perfect. Sorry you had such a rough time, though.
