I wonder why... ;-)

I live 150NW of Nashua and the Home Despot here has a *pile* of 'em.
They're upwards of 25% off with a free $60 cab thrown in the deal. I
bought an 8HP electric-start unit Saturday (my old one died last
Thursday) for $572 with no interest for a year (I'll use their money
for nothing). We only got 1.5" of the big storm, but I was prepared!

Keith, are you saying the HD in Nashua has those deals, or are you way up
north? I have an older Ariens (35+ yrs), and I am ready to replace. 25% off
is worth looking into...

bhkote, someone told me that many of them (Ariens, Craftsman, MTD) are made
by the same company now, using the same Tecumseh Snow King motors. Sam's
Club had a 10HP, 29" MTD for about $800. Probably similar at BJ's and
Costco.

Way up North(west). ;-) They had a *pile* of 'em though and they were
discounting heavily. I wouldn't be surprised if they moved inventory
down to the real snow country if they're sold-out down there. Perhaps
you can get your local HD to "order" one from up here and have it
delivered to the local store? Dunno.

The HD had a pile of Ariens too. I didn't think they're worth the
difference ($1000-$1100 vs. $600) since I don't plan on being around
here *that* much longer.

bhkote, someone told me that many of them (Ariens, Craftsman, MTD) are made
by the same company now, using the same Tecumseh Snow King motors. Sam's
Club had a 10HP, 29" MTD for about $800. Probably similar at BJ's and

I don't know who made the one I bought (Yard Machines, or some such),
but AIUI, there are only a couple of manufacturers left. My 11yo
Crapsman died last Thursday, so I replaced it with a similar hunk-o-
junk. I'm certainly not going to be around in snow country another 33
years. ;-)

They had 10.5HP units for $750ish and 5HP ones, similar to the Crapsman
I had, for $425ish. I decided to split the difference (that one looks
tooo big, and that one to small, but *that* one is juuust riiight).
