Default Can I plug a chest freezer into a basic 3 prong outlet?

Not sure if this is the best newsgroup for this question but...

My wife and I plan to purchase this chest freezer:http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...Name=Appliance...

I'm assuming it's just a 3 prong plug. So I'm assuming I can plug it
into just any 3 prong outlet? I just wonder if this is like plugging
in an air conditioner and we would need one of those special outlets.


These do not draw much current, a 15 amp outlet should be fine.
