Necessary Purchases:

Freezerless Fridgidaire Refrigerator (Stainless) - found a French door version that I adore...the Lowes dude said that the freezerless doesn't have that much more space than this one...and they are comparable prices...about $2400 with discount. Then I saw the same one with a dent in the side for $1700...seems like a lot for a fridge though. Will have to think about this for a while...and save pennies. -ENDED UP PURCHASING FROM HOME DEPOT FOR $1200, DID NOT GET WATER DISPENSER - DONE
Frigidaire Stainless Steel Dishwasher (stainless from Lowes - super quiet and high efficiency...highly recommended) DONE
Washer & Dryer (Samsung on sale with risers!) DONE
New cooking set (ie. pots and pans etc found a set at Sam's Club that I love!) DONE - PURCHASED ON AMAZON
Large area rugs (Ikea & Homegoods) - was looking at Crate and Barrel and they have a lovely cotton rug in teal that has caught my eye, for $100! (DONE, ENDED UP GETTING INDOOR/OUTDOOR RUGS ONLINE - JUST HOSE OFF WHEN THEY GET DIRTY)
New plush bath towels (Marshalls - Egyptian cotton in robin's egg blue) DONE
Possibly replace the wall unit oven. UPDATE: removed and purchased new range from GE with matching microwave. Although microwave is not installed yet.
Replace flooring - DONE (maple)
Spray all the interior doors glossy white or espresso???
New dining/breakfast room set - found a white pedestal table at a local flea market for $55, am painting it white. DONE
