Cooker
 

I am after a CHEAP cooker (either gas or electric, have points for both) anyone have one they are looking to get rid of??

Am going to have to check the 2nd hand shops etc over the next few days but hoping someone on here could help

My oven door wont close properly and am going to be stuck without it

If anyone can help i would be really really greateful

Thanks

Re: Cooker
 

You could try the Sense charity shop in town, they usually have some cookers in and all their electrical items are properly tested before being sold. Good luck

Re: Cooker
 

the 2nd hand shops in blackburn road had both gas and electric ones for around £125 but cheapest new onw in seen in a catalogue was £145.

Re: Cooker
 

Bit expensive for what I can afford really, will be having a look around so will see if i can find anything

Re: Cooker
 

If you get really stuck and can't find one quick enough then maybe HUFS would be a good place to go? (the place recommended in another thread in this section).

Re: Cooker
 

Or you could put a wanted on the Hyndburn free cycle site.

Re: Cooker
 

HUFS dont have any, tried there already

Re: Cooker
 

True, might try this, or might just try and get a loan from somewhere to get one

Re: Cooker
 

Try for a Social Fund Loan - a cooker is an 'essential' so may qualify

Re: Cooker
 

hi Emzy was just wondering if you had found a cooker yet as i have got one going

Re: Cooker
 

PM sent :D

Re: Cooker
 

I am still looking for a cooker if anyone has or knows of one for sale

Re: Cooker
 

We come across them ocasionally emzy, if we take one out that is ok, will let you have it, but, like I say, it is only occasionally.

Re: Cooker
 

Thanks, the oven door is bent and is hanging off at one side so am kinda stuck for using it lol

Re: Cooker
 

Am still looking if anyoneknows of one cheap thanks

Re: Cooker
 

some of the towns have credit unions , loaning money at a very cheap rate of interest ie.£300 over a year = £6.31 a week paying back just £329.28. The nearest one to me is Rawtenstall tel.01706 212759 , they would be able to tell you if one nearer yourself .

Re: Cooker
 

i thought you had to save with them before they would loan you money?

Re: Cooker
 

Try the shop on Union Road in Ossy that does hoovers & washing machines aswell. Its on the same block as the gym, across from the town hall. My friend got a brand new one from there fully fitted for £75.

Re: Cooker
 

Cant afford that at the mo, this is why im struggling

I have applied for a loan from the social fund but as of yet have not heard anything (it was only last week though and know these things take time)

Re: Cooker
 

I was without an oven door for about 12 months Emzy after the glass had blown (whilst I was on holiday !). Took door off completely and worked a treat if I put a large piece of foil across the doorway. Was electric. Might be a temporary measure.

Sorry, I can't help you ... but some good suggestions on here. x

Re: Cooker
 

It cant still be used but dangerous if the boys go near it (they are still very young and often 1 provides a distraction for the other to be naughty) I nearly burnt myself using it yesterday

Am holding out some hope that someone somewhere has one going very cheap so i can replace it lol

Re: Cooker
 

you may be lucky Em and get it before the end of the month, my last one took 4 weeks to go through

Re: Cooker
 

Sorry, forgot about the danger to the lads .. course you can't use it like that.

Re: Cooker
 

Its ok, if it was just me i would just use it as it is for a while (although things are taking longer to cook lol) but its just the safety thing for the twins thats bothering me the most
