I did not ask - only because the savings was already about $500, and I knew they wouldn't be able to match the comprehensive parts and labor warranty coverage that also come with buying from Costco (four years, because I opted not to buy the additional three-year coverage). By using my Costco credit card, we get a lot of points for cash back, which offsets the cost even further.
Now, I may regret this decision if we end up with the less-than-stellar install issues associated with big-box appliance sales. It might also take us a few weeks to receive delivery. But since our current washer still works, I'm okay with that. It's a trade off for an extra $500+ in pocket.
On an unrelated note, I opted out of buying the pedestals, because the savings on those was negligible, and paying an extra $500 for them seems ridiculous. If my back complains too much, we can always buy those later or perhaps build a platform. This way, I won't be so stressed about fitting the new appliances in with a hairs-width of clearance to spare. Obviously, I've made some concessions throughout this process.
