Default Weed Wackers

Yesterday my husband was outside in the yard fooling with his ancient weed wacker for about an hour and the poor thing just would not run at all. He has had it for goodness only knows how long. We have a lot of grass to cut and most of it is hill so it has to be done with a weed wacker.

I didn't know what to get him for Father's Day so I told him lets go to Sears and pick up a new weed wacker.

We went up there and he was looking at them and he decided he wanted the more powerful one vs the light weights. It was around $180.00 for it but I figured that if it was a better one then it was well worth it.

We got up to the counter with it and it rang up $89.00! I don't know if it rang up wrong or if it was on sale but you can imagine my excitement. We ended up getting a great deal on plus a three year warranty. (I am sure we will need the warranty if I know my husband at all!)

You really did find a great deal. I hope that it will last him for a long time, but then again I know how some men treat their equipment. Thankfully you also got the three year warranty.
