Carmine, they're cutting the sausage on the diagonal. Few of a much burdened public ever have time to grasp the math when someone pulls a penny of something here but adds two or three cents on something over there.
I think were so many of us less beleaguered by by daily financial quandries -- "Do I pay this pay the mortgage or let let slide to squeeze in a car payment?" -- we might be more aware.

Hi Venson:
I like that expression: Cutting the sausage on the diagonal. Even more that it is from your own personal experience and reportoire. Off the vacuum trail here for a minute, kudos go to the Silver State of Nevada. Why? As you know, it is one of the top 5 states for home foreclosures. What has it done? Effective July 1, a Nevada resident who is behind in home payments [and the lender has foreclosed on the property] is entitled to a day in court with a Judge and a rep from the lender. Cost for the legal day is limited to a mere $200-300 per person with the lender and borrower sharing the costs. If a lender's rep doesn't show for the court date, the judge resets the monthly mortgage amounts based on the borrower's finacial situation/status. I've told some friends and acquaintenes in the condition you descibe above that they have just received the best Christmas present they will ever get in their lifetime, even if they live to be over 100. And some may. Carmine D.

Hi Venson:
SEARS is offering its bagged Progressive upright model 35922 for $215 this Friday and Saturday. This SEARS model <strong><em>was</em></strong> the number ONE rated in the upright class for several years by Consumer Reports until knocked down to second by the HOOVER WT Anniversary model. The SEARS has an MSRP of $350, so $215 is a $135 savings.

Hi Carmine, A good vacuum at a good price that's what counts. First spot or second really doesn't matter. It's a good machine. Venson

Venson Absolutely right Venson. It has 356 customer reviews and scores 4.2 out of a possible 5 stars. $219 is a deal maker.

BEST BUY stores are advertising 20 percent off ALL NEW DYSONS ONLY. Dyson MAP (minimum advertised price) is 10 percent so this is 2X lower. Dyson DC25 Animal with ball technology, regularly $549, on sale for only $439 which is a savings of $110. Carmine D.
Encore, encore. For the second consecutive week, BEST BUY stores are offering 20 percent off all new dysons only. Model shown in the newspaper supplement is dyson's DC25 All Floors with ball technology regularly $499 on sale for $399. $100 savings.

Why would you even mention this? You have always contented that such reviews are fictitious or a conspiracy.

Still doing the twist I see. I already commented and as usual you try to avoid the issue.
The issues HS are that the supposedly latest and greatest dyson ball technology models are being advertised and sold by retailers at prices that are twice as low than the once sacred dyson MAP. As I recall you and others espoused here that dyson's policing of its MAP among retailers is dyson's pricing forte. What happened? Some here now, like me, are even calling for dyson to drop the ball line completely from its lineup. It's not just me anymore. That's quite a twist that you missed.
