    My dad bought one a number of years ago at a flea market even though we rarely get a lot of snow. It’s never been used.

    I think it was worth every penny to keep it from snowing. I had a small Toro 18" electric for decades that did fine till I got the 3’ snowfall. Bought a 24" Ariens gas powered one and have only used it a few times over the last 10 years for some snows over 12". I don’t regret the purchase.

    Lol…this is what I told my co-workers when I bought mine. We’ve had no local snow accumulation for three years. You’re welcome :)

    I am enjoying the 80 degree November temperatures.

    If we are not going to do anything to stop climate change, then we should start planning for it. I’m thinking of opening a banana plantation in Minnesota.

    That’s a well-known and well-respected adage here in Buffalo!

    Not really a good bet, considering where one might live. But it’s the only if/then that might work.

    Example: if I buy a leaf blower/vac, the dozen oaks in our yard won’t drop their leaves? What about a self-propelled mower? Grass won’t grow? Wash the car = no rain?

    Is that phenomenon related to the sure fire way to find something you’ve lost? You’ve looked everywhere for days, so you give up and buy a replacement, then the lost item suddenly appears.

    The more snow we get here in the mountains in winter, the less the chance of forest fires in the spring. We’re off to a good start, 15 inches over the past few days.

    didn’t work for me… when I got mine a few years back, I can’t even guess how many days I used it. But I guess that’s okay… money well spent!

    Two years ago, I had to replace the spark plug on my snow blower because it wouldn’t start before a snow forecast. We never got any snow fall large enough to use it that year.

    Is it like washing your car guarantees that it will rain?

    I like to believe I’m not superstitious, yet I’ve never put the shovels and the buckets of ice-melter back in the shed until at least mid-April. The last time I bought a brand new car was in the Spring of 1994. There hadn’t been a single snowflake in weeks, and no snow in the forecast. I felt safe taking delivery on March 10th. There was a near-blizzard the next day.

    Before I ever got one, I threw my back out about 4 times, shoveling, so, I would rather have it, and not need it, than need it, and not have it.

    In the fall if 2022, I bought a 4-wheel drive truck to more easily get through snow and ice. Not a flake has fallen since.
