Cash for Clunkers for Appliances

I have gotten information that starting in October you will be able to get a rebate for purchasing an Energy Efficient Appliance. According to ABC News you will be able to get anywhere from $50 to $200 back. If your state already gives a rebate when purchasing these type of appliances this will be on top of that rebate. Unlike the cash for clunkers you won't have to trade anything in. All you would have to do is purchase an appliance with the energy star. When more information comes I will pass it on. Right now states have until October to submit an application to take part in this and it will go from there. So crossing fingers this goes through because I need a new washer and dryer.
