Hiya DIB:

What price did you pay for the vacuum?  $14?  $399?  $339?

Wal-mart near me also seemed to have that issue... they put the Hoover Platinum Bagged upright on their shelf where  a Bissell floor model used to be.  The price in front of the floor model said 39 dollars for about a week... I complained to the manager that it was false advertising, but they still woudn't honor the price!    The sign now reads 399....  Only a matter of time before they start turning up on CL and the 'bay

Carmine,

I thought Sears had some damaged and/or returns they were dumping.  I thought the description was in error and not the price.  I assumed if it were a price misprint Sears would notify me as so. - They did, "no sale per their liability and restrictions agreement".

BEST BUY stores are selling the HOOVER Platinum Collection Lightweight Bagged Upright with companion canister for $299.  This is a $100 discount from the MSRP.  I'm not overly impressed with the duo but both are decent overall performers for household usage.

I can't say exactly what you'll get for 14 bucks but Sears has been regularly sending me emails almost every week it seems. For those looking for economical buys, Sears is holding in-store-only "Super Saturday Sales" tomorrow, August 15th. New bargains will be announced every hour.

Check in with your local store to learn if this sale is in effect in your area.

As always, I have no affiliation whatsoever with Sears but highly recommend it as a source for, among other things, decent vacuums at decent prices AND not only from the Kenmore line. Any objections? Well, you can go straight to . . . Williams-Sonoma or Bloomingdales -- and give 'em all the money you want.

Sadly most big box retailers show a lack of imagination in displaying the vacuum/floorcare products they sell.  Just lining them up willy nilly.  In the old days the displays of the vacuums in stores and store windows were a thing of beauty.

This just came across from amazon.com on vacuum savings.  Along with this printed message:

Dear Amazon.com Customer,
As someone who has shown an interest in vacuums, you might like to know about our current savings on select upright, canister, and handheld vacuums.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=pe_26470_12589920_fe_txt_1/?ie=UTF8&docId=1000403891

Some prices are good.  Some not so.
