So, I'm trying to look on the bright side of the changing temperatures and embrace the halting growing season by thinking that the box stores must slash prices on their remaining palm inventory. :) Am I thinking along the right lines? Last year I played Deal or No Deal with the Wal-Mart manager over 4 Washies and walked away with a 50% discount. (10 Gal for $20/each) Anyone else target the box stores towards winter for reduced prices? What has your luck been and any strategies you'd recommend :) "This is a stick up... I want your remaining palm inventory at half it's ticketed price. Just give me a good deal and no one gets hurt! :)

There are some $300 Trackys at Lowes I have my eye on but $100 would be so much better.

A case of beer for the manager as a perk might go a long way :)

Or maybe a "Cash Incentive"... don't want them to loose their job but I must feed my yard more palms. It's screaming for them and quite frankly, I'm tired of hearing it. LOL
