my 18yr old fridge is leaking. the drain line is clogged but it's not ice. i defrosted it and its still clogged.

i'm probably going to buy this (Frigidaire 18.2 cu ft Top-Freezer Refrigerator (White) ENERGY STAR): http://www.lowes.com/webapp/wcs/sto...=10151&catalogId=10051&productId=3246318&cId=

it's on sale for $540 (10% off regular price) plus this week comes w/free ice maker.
also this weekend, there's no state tax for EnergyStar products. so i save another 5%.

so basically 15% off.

How much better could I do for Black Fri for a similiar sized Energystar fridge?
Worth the inconvience to wait a month?
 
Why not unclog the drain line? The clog is most likely like a slime. If you have an air compressor, it's easy. If not, detach it and blow through it with your mouth.

That's disgusting! No man should endure such cruel chore, that's what wives are for.

Check with your local electric utility. They may offer cash. For example, ours will pick up an old, working fridge and give you $50. They'll also give you $50 for buying an Energy Star-rated fridge.
