Major shops don't offer discounts for cash, but when you deal with the
owner of local stores it may be possible. Buying a major appliance on
line is not something I'd do. I can get competitive prices and service
locally. I don't want to have a 350# refrigerator delivered on the
doorstep, I want it put in place and the old one hauled away.

Small appliances is a different story. I just bought a toaster from
Amazon because the local stores did not have what I wanted. I use my
Amazon CC and get 3% back too.
