I'll pay cash... so no extra fee's from visa.
I don't know about you, but it takes a lot longer than 12 hours of my time to earn that $800 cdn if I bought the fridge here in Calgary.... $800/12 = $66 / hour net which probably works out to about $100 per hour gross for my time.
For me, spending 12 hours on the weekend traveling to Montana and back, to save $800 is well worth it.

The captain planet part of me has to make an honorable mention about the extra CO2 emissions of driving down in a truck to buy a fridge
