New range is getting delivered today, hopefully... I guess Home Depot contracts to a third party for delivery. Given that, I don't understand why they wouldn't discount the price if I didn't take the free delivery. I was given the option to pick up at the store and they would load in my truck, or to have it dropped off in my kitchen.
With the price of labor, vehicles, and fuel there is absolutely no way that it isn't costing HD at least $50 to $100 to get that range into my house my from the store on the other side of town. Plus, they are responsible for any damage that happens getting it in the house and if they mess something up it is going back to the store and they are going to have to repeat the process again.
Maybe it is marketing and since they advertise "Free Delivery" they can't discount if you don't take it. I dunno, just doesn't make sense to me as I'd rather have another $50 or $100 off the price and also rather not have random people in my house.
