Here's a recap of the Sunday vacuum ads starting with BEST BUY which features the NEW Electrolux Intensity (bagged) for $299.  The features are "designed to maximize suction power while the telescoping handle reduces bending.  Includes fingertip controls.  Bag & Filter change indicator and automatic cord rewind. " It shows a fold down view for easy storage.

Oreck has the premier ad space this week.  Taking the whole full first page of the "SMart Source" magazine for its XL 2 Deluxe.  A pic of Dave relaxing on a lounge chair saying: "Don't sweat it.  My Oreck XL Deluxe does all the work so you don't have to."  And a lovely young lady hugging her Oreck XL 2.  Usual giveaways: Cordless iron; housekeeper canister; free shipping; in home no risk 30 day trial; 5 year guaranty; 3 free annual tune-ups; and no interest and payments for one year.
 
But the best deal goes to Fry's Electronics for the BISSELL HEALTHY HOME for $189.  Yes that's right!  This $299 vacuum has a price reduction to $249, just like Wal*Mart, BEST BUY, LOWE's and others.  AND also has a $30 BISSELL mail-in-rebate AND another $30 Instant Savings from Fry's for a net price of $189.  Comes with a two year limited warranty.  The vacuum deal of the week for bagless upright buyers.
 
HAPPY VACUUMING TRAILS.

According to the Wal*Mart court filing, Ms. Roehm and Mr. Womack developed a romantic relationship over the course of several months.  The suit claims the pair "inappropriately extended business travel in order to spend additional personal time with one another at Wal*Mart's expense," citing a hotel stay in Chicago and golfing outing in New York.
 
The suit draws from internal emails tracing the relationship from early 2006 including ones culled from Mr. Womack's wife, Wal*Mart, and Interpublic Group's Draft FCB.

Hi Carmine,
 
Thanks.  It's great that the GE's canister is still out there at a decent price.  Any word about it's durability?

On Friday and Saturday March 30 and 31, Kohl's is offering 50 percent off on "selected" floorcare products.  Same caveat applies: Kohl's uses a high MSRP to calculate the mark down so buyer beware.
