Hi everyone. My wife is sick and tired of removing snow with a coal shovel. She is a good woman, but she is getting close too 90 years old...and I have decided that it is time too invest in a "snowthrower". We live on fixed income...and can afford too spend possibly $65-$70 on a new machine. We live in Newfoundland, Canada..and our average snowfall is about 80 foot per year. Thanks in advance.

Come on Paula. Let's turn that unibrow upside down. You know you still love your uncle 'lint. :-)

Could be snow bunny territory, but for $60, I don't know how much blowing you're going to get. Snow that is.

It might be easier to get a new, younger wife than a $60 snow thrower. :-)

Nibbler,, My thinking would be going the other way. I think it would be easier to find a $60 snowblower at the garage sale run by the soon-to-be ex-wife of the man out shopping for that younger wife!! This based on part life-experience and part common-sense! Believe me, no one ever changed wives for $60! LOL!

Just checking in.......

SO LINT, WHAT DID YOU END UP WITH? 

Talk about cabin fever.

Let's get a pool going on what he got.

I say Lint got a Toro, probably got a good deal on one of those recent "returns".  What do I win?

Don't just throw the 90 year old wife out,  Trade her in for three 30 year olds.  One to shovel the snow and one to cook,  and then there is one left.  you'll just have to find somethin for her to do so she won't feel left out.

60 bucks,  Had to be a jacobsen snowburst on e-bay.
