Hi, I'm in Brampton ON. The snow isn't that bad compared to other places (there was a really bad one like 2 or 3 weeks ago tho), but I'm the only one that does the shoveling.

I can't afford a 1000 CAD blower from Canadian Tire or Home Depot. And I don't think I need anything super heavy duty.

Just want something reliable preferably under 400 CAD. Or is that not possible?

A $1000 blower from Canadian Tire or Home Depot IS a cheap blower. If you want something cheaper, look for a used one.

People would be willing to sell at half price? Or lower?

There are often some small engine shops or hobbyists that have some blowers for sale. Sometimes they'll even have fully refurbished ones.
