@Stealth83 : good question! I hope the following answers it for you Emoticon
 
Online Purchases and Telephone Orders
During the holiday you can buy qualifying ENERGY STAR® energy-efficient products in-store, online, by telephone, mail, custom order, or any other means.
** The sale of the item must take place during the specific period.
The purchase date is easy to determine when the purchase is made in-store but becomes more complicated with remote purchases. The purchaser must have given the consideration for the item during the period even if the item may not be delivered until after the period is over.

Why washers but not dryers, I wonder? Because everyone in Texas has room for a clothes line?!? I'm on a second floor with a big tree, I could get one of the pulley lines like the old b&w shows!

@Blackbird : I know! thought that was odd also. And 'beverage chillers' Lord knows we need those.
I just bought one getting ready, or preparing in case of rolling blackouts this summer Emoticon

Important info to know Emoticon
Additional Charges Affect the Sales Price:
Delivery, shipping, handling, and transportation charges by the seller are part of the item's sales price. Charges for installing free-standing items are also part of the item's sales price. If the item you buy is not taxable, then these charges are not taxable.
 
For air conditioners and refrigerators (because they have a price cap), you have to look at the item's total sales price to determine whether you can buy it tax free.
 
For example, you buy an ENERGY STAR® refrigerator for $1,995 with a $50 delivery charge for a total sales price of $2,045. Because the refrigerator's total sales price is more than the $2,000 cap for refrigerators, tax is due on the entire $2,045 sales price.
 
If a delivery charge is billed per item, and an invoice has both exempt and taxable items, only the qualifying exempt item's delivery charge is exempt.
 
For a flat-rate delivery charge, the total delivery charge is applied to the tax-exempt items and is exempt if it does not cause the item's sales price to exceed its price cap.
