Why can't I get deals like this?
Original Message   Feb 22, 2005 1:57 pm
I own a 10HP MTD that's been real good to me over the last  6 years. I couldn;t afford the Ariens, etc. A few weekends ago my son in law walks into the local Home Depot and starts looking at the MTD's. He  sees a salesperson tagging the Ariens blowers,walks over and notices that they tagged the 1128 at 999.00..arghhhh you should see this baby throw snow..that's a machine!!

Actually I was pretty active in the old forum posting many messages concerning my Snapper WBH Big 6 that was a big bust. What a lemon...since I was a sucker for pain and being brainwashed by Marshall I purchased another Snapper (Hi Vac) and have had no problems since....for some reason I like those machines....

The saving grace was the local shop where I purchased....

George, did you buy that Ariens?

Glad you like your Snapper Hi-Vac! I have a hard time not liking almost all of Snappers products, they sure make some good stuff!

Verify for me your name on the old forum, we'll get your post count back for you.

HD had two refurbished Ariens 11528's available earlier Thursday for $970. Bet they're gone or will be this am with our latest "dusting" here in NJ...

Really Marshall?

I'm pretty sure I learned that here somewhere. Of course it might have been posted during one of your missions to enhance the security of the country. By the way, your recent posting of your picture might possibly blow your cover for future co-vert ops.
