I know spring is just around the corner
How do I know?
On classified I keep track of FS for sale listings versus WTB want to buy listings.
When WTB outnumber FS by 25% I know spring is just around the corner
Over 50% Summer is at hand
Turns negative Fall is about to happen
No WTB or very little deep into winter
I first noticed this trend in 1985

On the radio once about snow blowers
they talked to a male who while at home depot late spring saw a lot of snow blowers marked down to ridiculous prices so he bought the lot Stored tem in his garage
Waited till next winter and big storm with tons of snow to drop Sold them all at big profit

they never blow them out though. I wouldn't mind having one, although we really only need one 4-5 times per winter.

Last spring I walked past a couple of guys looking at a snow blower sometime in late February. I encouraged them to buy so we wouldn't have any more snow. Don't know if they bought it, but it still snowed.
