I need appliances (washer/dryer, fridge, stove). Do I need to buy a power cord separately for any of these? I noticed there was an option online to add a power cord.

Ok, here's the deal. If all appliances are ELECTRIC:
Washer, Dryer: Dryer Duct Vent (SKU: 9282812), Washing Machine Fill Hose(SKU: 5446387), and 3 (SKU: 2900490)
or 4 (SKU: 3921046) prong power cord.
Fridge: If waterline is present, your choice of varied waterline install kits.
Stove: 3 or 4 prong range cord. ( 7045618 or 7045707, there are other options but none cheaper )
YES, you may use your own accessories. BUT, if you get Best Buy's accessories and it's all electric (NOT gas), installation, leveling, etc, will all be free on the items you listed. It would be done by the delivery people. For the fridge, this assumes that a waterline is present with a valve on it. For the washer, it assumes a proper drain spout is there.
The reason that Best Buy's items must be used is for certification purposes. You can't expect them to certify and back up something hooked up using an old part, can you?
For all items, haul-away and recycling are included free (regardless if you get the accessories or not), but there are conditions - it can't be obscenely hard to remove these items from the house, etc.
I hope that answers your questions?

ok wait....i looked at the accessories tab for all the appliances in my cart and there are a ton of things it looks like i need to get. the appliance itself does not come with these things... example for dryer:
Frigidaire - Affinity 7.0 Cu. Ft. 7-Cycle Electric Dryer - Black FAQE7011KB do i really need to buy all the accessories in the tab or it wont be functional????(minus the pedestal)
i dont have old parts because ive never had appliances before....

No, all you really need is the "Sure Connect Dryer Vent Kit with 6' Power Cord Model: CORD, VENT KIT | SKU: 9897626" everything else is suggested but not necessary.
