Bought a snow blower! 24" dual stage Ariens. About $1,300.

Crazy how hard they are to get though, they only seem to make a very limited amount every year. Most places are already all sold out. I was able to prebuy one that was on order at Home Depot. It's on the truck from Toronto. There's probably like 10 on that truck, they'll sell out the day they arrive. I prepaid for one though so they'll call me when it comes in.

I'm hoping I get it this week, so I can set it up, try it out/learn how to use it. (never used one before) and get myself ready for the next snow fall.

Its weird that tons of new snowblowers are sold each and every year.

Are people throwing them out in the spring? They should last more than a few months I would think.

I heard a funny story where a woman bought a snow blower and returned it because it did not work.

She never put gas in it. lmao.

Some people dont know these things.
When they sold it to her they should have asked if she also needed a 1 gallon gas can. Then she would have realized.
