/in /by

While snowy season might be ending in the next month or so, now’s as great of time as ever pick up an electric snow shovel. While not quite as robust as a full-on snow blower, this snow shovel features an 8A motor and can clear a path of 10 inches wide by 6 inches deep. At just $50, it’s hard to deny the value provided here, especially as it’s $8 below the lowest price that we’ve seen at Amazon. We also have a wide selection of Tesla, Greenworks, and other e-bike discounts in today’s New Green Deals, so you won’t want to miss that either.
