While knowing the price you are paying to run an additional refrig in your home is important don't ignore the value.
We purchased a new refrig four years ago because we desired the additional cooling space and the flexibility of taking advantage of sale items. It works for us because we cook do 99% of meals and only occassionally go out. Having said that I am going to explore the price factor. thank you for the information |

When we go out it is usually a social opportunity or we are tired/lazy or just want a change of scenery. I can cook a meal as tasty or more so at home than most restaurants and I love to cook so I am almost compulsive-obsessive about stocking up on sale items. And the lovely Diane isn't a fusy eater and loves washing dishes (no really, she does), so we make a good team.

Just my observation. Would you run a freezer in an oven ? Our garage seems to be 20 to 30 degrees warmer than our home. Any savings would be lost in energy consumption

I guess there are good reasons to have a freezer or extra refrigerator in an extremely hot garage in Florida, i just don't know many.My refrigerator is plenty big enough to handle everything we need. As far as sales,there are ALWAYS sales.Freezer or extra refrigerator in a basement, works for me ,in a hot garage in Florida ,not a chance in h*ll.

![]() The info I'm getting on TOTV re: cost per month for running refrigeration in the garage is in line with what I'm being told by the appliances expert. Those costs are acceptable to me given the savings I can realize with wholesale volume buying.

I can assure you my numbers are accurate unless the door gasket is worn or you are going in and out the frig in the garage more than the one in the kitchen. Energy usage and cost is my specialty in school.
