Since 1916, Frigidaire has been an innovative leader in the appliance industry. Whether you're a loyal customer, or a first-time buyer, Frigidaire Rebates can help you find your next Frigidaire appliance at an affordable price. Now is a good time to take advantage of the federal Cash for Appliances program, which will offer rebates of between $50 and $200 on large appliances.
History
Founded as Guardian Refrigerator Company in 1916, Frigidaire developed the first self-contained refrigerator. William C. Durant, of GM, personally invested in the company in 1918. Shortly after, inn 1919, the company changed its name to Frigidaire.. Also, GM acquired Frigidaire in 1919, and then sold it to White Consolidated Industries, parent of Westinghouse, in 1979. In turn, White Consolidated Industries was acquired by Swedish-owned Electrolux in 1988. However, many of Frigidaire's innovations occurred during the GM years, including a vertical, rather than an oscillating agitator, in its clothes-washing machines.[1]

Cash for Appliances
As part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA), a stimulus bill passed in February, Cash for Appliances has set aside $300 million to encourage consumers to purchase large appliances with the help of rebates. The DOE has set a deadline of October 15 for each state and territory to file a formal application to participate in the program, which would provide rebates of between $50 and $200 for appliances that feature the ENERGY STAR rating. However, unlike Cash for Clunkers, consumers are not required to trade in their old appliances.[1]
Each state or territory will receive an allocation proportionate to its population, with Califorinia receiving the greatest allocation and the Virgin Islands receiving the least.[2]
Moreover, each state will be able to establish its own rules for distributing the money.[3]
