Good grief, $250 to plow your driveway is highway robbery. Jack down the street would do mine for 20-50 bucks and my driveway is almost a third of a mile. You must live in one of those upscale neighborhoods where everyone overpays for services. I was bitter with my husband for buying a $800 snow blower years back (do the math) because one year we had a terrible blizzard and Jack was in Florida (laughing his ass off I'm sure).

My husband is great at some things but maintenance isn't one of them. He got halfway through the driveway when the aged auger belt broke on the snow blower. It's something you should replace regularly but he never gave it a thought and it's not something you can easily buy in a snowstorm. They were cleaned out at the local hardware store. We shoveled the rest by hand just because we were too sheepish to give Jack a call. Good thing we're both in pretty good physical condition. Even better now after that workout....now where did I put the Ibiprophen?
