Hitachi RB24EAP 23.9cc Leaf Blower $74.99 @ Sears B&M YYMV

Have this blower and absolutely love it. Always easy to start and always runs nice and smooth. If you have trouble getting the engine to prime (it's a common issue as a hose disconnects in shipping sometimes), you can read how to fix it here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2WN...B003VYC31Q

Man, I really wish that this was a blower and vac. Right now I have a cheap, electric blower/vac that I would love to replace with a gas unit. I am just not sure if I want a blower only.

If you are trying to have this shipped you need to:
1. Track down the store that fulfilled your online order
2. Give them your email and request the tracking number.

Interestiing, like I mentioned my 1st for gas powered equipment and knowing that ethanol is the cause for pre-mature wear of the fuel line. Thanks for the info. The other problem that I had was the return fuel line from the primer bulb always popping out, but I fixed that one.

Quote from cwier60 : Sears' website is the worst e-commerce I have seen. I finally got my online order through by using only one $50 Land's End gift card and using a CC for the balance. What a PITA.Click the Select from available items box. 95.99 is for a refurb unit. New ones are 79.99 in the outlet. Logical, right?That gas line problem is probably thanks to your fed govt's push for ethanol gas. If you can get it locally, always use 100% gas in your gas powered tools. If you can't get 100%, then use a fuel treatment like Sta-Bil. Failing that, a fuel line replacement is a very small maintenance cost.

Thanks for posting this. I have a Sears outlet near me and they had them for 79.99. I was able to place an online order for pickup at the Sears outlet very close to me. I used the MYCART coupon and it took 5% off. I also had a good deal of Discover CashBack bonus and I bought a $50 and $25 ecerticificate gift card for lands end canvas for a total of $60 CashBack bonus (a 20% savings or a total saving of $15) and was able to apply them in the Sears outlet shopping cart, so I had a total savings of $19 between the coupon and discover CashBack bonus e-certs, so I wound up paying $65.55 including tax. This is a really great deal on a highly rated new blower.

Thanks OP. I caved in and bought the blower. FYI I bought mine at our local sears and not the outlet shop for the same price. There are at least 9 of them still left and the Burlington Mall Sears in MA. The tag will say $89.99 but will ring to $74.97.
