Man, I was SOL on a gen too, people were laughing at me Friday evening as I went from store to store looking. I have it on my list for next year, right now it's probably like trying to buy a snowblower in February, anyone that gets them in is going to be charging way more than they should. Heck yesterday a mason guy helped me with some sand bags and some gutter extension supports, 10 sand bags and 2 2x4's=125.00! WTF! And HE was telling me all
About how the yard guy was ripping everyone of for sand charging 2x the amount by the yard or bag and making customers bag it themselves. Nice guy, but dude, I think he charged me $50 for 2 g.damn 2x4's! I was ticked off to say the least.
