$2800 for a hot water heater????????? Holy crap! I got a brand new furnace AND hot water heater (60 gallon) installed for $5500 a few years ago. Either prices have really gone up or you're getting ripped off.
Sears is a rip-off, Geoff. I bought a new garage door opener from them. It broke twice within three years, and I had to get a new one, because the second repair would have meant that I'd spent as much to repair it as it would to buy a new one. One of my coworkers spent several hundred with Sears last winter to get his furnace repaired. Guess what? He ended up buying a new furnace this winter!
