Has anyone tried an electric, battery-operated snow-blower/thrower? I'm considering them but the cost of a second/replacement battery is insane. (it's on par with buying a razor + blade replacement conundrum.)

If I'm picking up one of these, the portability would make sense - sis lives about 10 mins away...Throw it into the trunk, and do her area as well.

My area is (smaller) ~3-car driveway + sidewalk.

Tech isn't there yet. ~30 minutes on a charge, and not powerful enough to do a real snowfall.

Best Buy disabled our corporate discount code one day early. So no stacking for me.

I'm so I'm not going to do anything about it and instead, will continue living my normal, everyday life.

Got a battery operated one. Snow Joe from Lowes. Great reviews. Heard about it from a friend last year and bought it on sale. Now I actually look forward to clearing snow from the driveway. But I have a small driveway so that's why this works for me.

Yup I have the snow joe battery operated one as well. Bought on clearance for $100 reviews look to be pretty good, we'll see if it ever snows.

Grab the dewalt 20v brushless trimmer. Picked one up this summer and did my whole backyard which was full of weeds up to my knees. No issues at all.

Lithium or lead acid? That makes a huge difference.

Best Buy shit the bed BIG TIME last night. Their site was absolutely brutal. Doing anything within the first 20-30 mins was pretty much impossible. The next 30 mins, the site was at least browsable but your couldn't purchase anything.

yeah i tried it a bit around 12:15am and it was broken.
walmart also wouldnt process my shit...wifey did it this morning.

hilarious big name sites can't even handle just Canadian site traffic on black friday which is a fraction of the size of what US sites are getting - fail.

I knew I was being very conservative with my numbers. It wasn't until 2.5 hours later that Best Buy was back up and running

Ordered a pair of tower speakers.
Polk Audio Monitor 65 Series $298/pair
http://www.visions.ca/catalogue/category/Details.aspx?categoryId=155&productId=21242&sku=MONITOR65


Typical rip-off Canadian BB pricing.
$500 from $1,000
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/jbl-...2da65483d2den02

They are $174 US shipped from Amazon. EH, I see they increased the price slightly to $183

People are fucked. It could have been boxes of horse shit advertised as 90% off and people would fight for it, as long as in their head they think they somehow beat the system and got a great deal.
That said, I ordered window coverings for my basement from justblinds.com because they were 20% off lol FUCKING DEAL OF THE CENTURY!!111111!!!!
