Picked one of the Li-Ion string trimmer (aka weed eater/weed whacker) models up at $10 in store clearance at 52302...had first seen it on clearance at $80 last week and guess they wanted them gone. Uses two 20 volt lithium batteries (included). MSRP was $114 and seems to be on clearance with at $75 or in other nearby stores...probably will drop further in the coming days where they remain in stock.
The 16" 2-stroke gas model had also dropped to $25 in-store clearance at the same store. Reg price was $74.

If you only need it for light work (ie edging grass) and a limited space it's probably fine. The electric trimmer I got won't go through anything more than normal lawn grasses and dandelions. Even then it doesn't make it far. That's a Poulon Pro though, I'm happy to hear about brands that work better as I really want to go all electric.
