Debating Airens 5520E or 7520E...HD Coupons?
Original Message   Nov 28, 2005 7:52 pm
I've read many threads on this site about compact machines being under powered so now I'm second guessing my decision for a 5520E.  My driveway is approximately 3 cars wide by 3 cars long and I live in midwest where it doesn't snow like Buffalo.  I initially thought I would spend about $450 on a single stage since I feel guilty about not shoveling such a small driveway.  Then I realized what I really dislike about shoveling is the EOD pile.  I can't imagine a single stage would do a good job at the EOD.  That's how I decided on a 2-stage.  Piling another $150 onto the problem I realized I could get a Ariens 5520 for $599.  I didn't opt for the 7524 because it was $310 over what I orginally set out to spend and the 5520 appeared capable siting there in the store, especially considering my small drive. 

Since we don't get more than a couple large storms, mostly small storms that add up over the season I want to believe the 5520 can handle my small driveway.  Is this sound logic or am I being penny wise, pound foolish?

I read another post on this site that stated they saved 10% at Home Depot on their Ariens purchase with one of the many coupons they have or something to that extent.  I called my local HD to inquire about a coupon.  They told me I could save 10% if I got their credit card but that was it.  Does anyone know of any other HD coupons available without having to take their credit card?  the additional 10% would make the 7524 more palletable for me.

Thank you.

You can buy HD coupons on ebay for about a buck each. Seems they are contractor coupons and they do work. Good luck.

These coupons are available by mail if you go to their website and tell them you're moving. 10% off up to $2000.
