The TV suddenly broke! What is the advice for moms who are suffering from big expenses?

The home appliances I use every day suddenly broke. Do you have such an experience? If it is indispensable to your life, you need to buy a new one immediately, which will cause money problems. Large appliances are expensive, so it will surely be a big expense, right? Even at Mama's house, which posted to the Mama Master community, it seems that home appliances suddenly broke ...

It is said that "something that has a shape will break someday", but sudden breakdowns are still a problem. It is a fact that when it comes to expensive home appliances, it can be quite a pain. If you have a family with children who need TV in their daily lives, life without TV may become difficult. It seems that the poster has to think about how to make money because it seems that he will buy it in the near future, but it seems that there are surprisingly many moms who are suddenly forced to spend such a large amount of money.

Like the poster, moms who had a big expense due to broken home appliances

It worked fine until yesterday, but it stopped working at all, suddenly made a strange noise, and it was hard to know when the home appliances would break down. Of course, home appliances also have a limited lifespan, and the number of years of use may be written in the instruction manual, but it may break before that. I use the washing machine every day, and the air conditioner becomes a daily necessities depending on the season. You may use your computer every day for work, and there are many things that you need to buy a new one immediately. However, if there is only one home appliance that breaks, it may still be within the payable range. However, it seems that there are cases where this is not the case.

テレビが突然壊れてしまった!大きな出費に悩むママへのアドバイスとは?

When building a house, it is not uncommon to buy new home appliances at the same time. In that case, the timing of breakage may overlap. I think there is a slight difference in the timing of breakage depending on the frequency of use, but it seems that it is a common story that most things break at the same time. If you think that the microwave oven or washing machine is broken and you have to buy a new one, the dishwasher will be out of order. After that, it was time to replace the refueling device and air conditioner. It seems that such a surprising chain of expenses may occur. If this happens, it is likely to have a major impact on households. Even if it's hard to do so far, I want to keep my expenses as low as possible. What are some ways to save money when buying a new TV, which is a problem for posters?

What are some ways to buy a new TV as cheaply as possible?

When you buy a new one, if you don't care about the manufacturer and size, you may find one that is relatively affordable. Instead of sticking to well-known brands of TVs, it's also a good idea to choose ones from lesser-known manufacturers. Besides, the price of TV can vary greatly depending on the size. If you keep the minimum necessary in everything, you may be able to save a lot of money. In terms of not being particular about it, it is a good idea to choose second-hand goods. If you take a look at the thrift shop, you may find something in good condition that you can still use.

As for home appliances such as TVs, new products are coming out one after another. In that case, it is not uncommon for the previous one to be out of shape and sold cheaply. In addition, the products displayed in the store may be sold at a reduced price as "exhibits only", so I think it is a good idea to aim for such a TV.

It is also ant to send out for repair without being particular about buying

If your broken home appliances are still under warranty, you may be able to get them repaired for free. However, even if the warranty period has expired, repairs can be cheaper than buying a new TV. First of all, it seems good to contact the manufacturer or the shop where you purchased it. However, please note that if the home appliances are too old, there may be no parts and repairs may not be possible.

Better yet, the option of "no TV"

The contributor seems to be premised on buying a new TV, but isn't there an option to "take this opportunity to not turn on the TV?" Actually, I have been living without a TV for about 15 years, but I have never had any problems, and I even feel that I am very comfortable. If necessary, use distribution services and free videos so that your lifestyle is not dominated by the time of the TV program. Such a life is not bad either.

Home appliances will break someday. Take this opportunity to save money in case of emergency!

No matter how carefully you handle it, home appliances will eventually break. I don't know the timing, but I think that systematically saving money in case of a break is also a measure to prevent money from being in trouble due to a sudden breakdown. The amount of money you can save will vary depending on the household, but if you save it little by little, it will be a large amount in 5 to 10 years. I think it would be very helpful if I could buy a new one with that money, but I think it would give me a sense of security that I wouldn't have to rush or get in trouble in the event of an emergency. If you are worried, why not start "Home Appliance Savings" just in case?
