Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Pricing has been going nuts on everything it seems. A lot of it makes no sense other than some are trying to make up income because of loss of sales during the "pandemic" restrictions... A lot of peeps are saying it's because of oil prices, like the tire increases and most petroleum products that started this month, although oil is pretty steady at around $60 a barrel. :doh Some of it is the China tariffs, I can see and understand that part. I saw this coming, that's why I stocked up so much and bought some of my new equipment when I did. Most equipment is going way up too, my new Iron worker with the extra attachments went up $2000.00 since I bought it.

I hardly eat out at all but even my McDoubles at McD's went from $1.29 each or 2 for $2 to 1.99 each, a 100% price increase on 2 of them is really sad. There is a way around that though, every receipt has a buy 1 one get one free if you fill out a short survey on the receipt. :tounge2

I've gotten notices from almost every supplier that May 1 prices are going up, the last one was Stens a few days ago. Just giving everyone a heads up that if you have plans to buy anything do it now because this isn't over yet and I know prices will continue to go up.

Fill out the receipt coupons, use other coupons, shop for deals, and anything else we can do I guess...

I'm going to the farm this afternoon to do more cleanup and work on saving some on the electric bill this Winter, which by the way is going up too. :whew
