Annual Whirlpool sale took place this weekend

ST. JOSEPH, Mich. -- The annual Whirlpool appliance sale drew large crowds over the weekend, raising funds for community programs.

The sale, held both in person and online, featured deeply discounted appliances, including KitchenAid stand mixers, Gladiator garage products, and refrigerators. Volunteers and donated space supported the event, which aims to meet or exceed last year’s $200,000 in sales.

Organizers said many items sold out during the two-day in-person sale. Those who missed it can still sign up for alerts or participate in the online sale scheduled for December.

All proceeds benefited United Way of Southwest Michigan.
