He was referring to the lift range data. Without adapter, it’s pretty low. The adapter allows it to be used effectively with SUVs and trucks. The Torin has been at Costco for quite some time, the $40.00 off is pretty recent. I believe as of today. I did take a photo of the price at one point but erased it. It had a sale end date.

The Costco lady says she sees this all the time. These Dyson vacs are not very reliable.

Second time the vac made weird noises and the trigger would intermittently stop even though you held it down.
3rd times the charm so far but I'm not sure if can last | Damn you're scaring me with V15 reliability issues 
My previous vacuum was a Dyson v6, had that for about 7 years. Replaced the battery once. The motor head recently crapped out. The vacuum itself is very beat up but very well utilized. Now I just use it as a hand vac for my car.

Updated deal with the Dyson V15 when purchasing it directly from the website.
It's currently $799, but if you have a Perkopolis account, you can generate a coupon for an additional 10% off
Then you can stack that deal with Rakuten rebates which is at 20%.
If my math is right, the net costs should be $662 tax in and Rakuten rebate

The Dyson canister vacuums has served me well. Recently upgraded for more power and was able to sell the old one (10 yrs old) for almost 2 bills. 
IMO, those stick vacuums are gimmicky, but I'm looking for one to clean up after the new puppy due to the debris it brings back from walks. Any recommendations for a cheap one with HEPA filter? I'm thinking Shark if I can find a Black Friday deal.

The wife does have 2 of those dyson hair products (curler, hair dryer) and she seems to like it. Although that curler seems to be kinda on the fritz if you rotate the cord too much so once again not the best quality.

About 2 years ago the battery only lasted like 2 mins so I replaced it and it ran like a champ again and finally about 6 months ago the motorhead after years of abuse vacuuming hair from the wife made it go bye bye. I did think about buying a new motorhead but instead bought a new V12 instead. The V6 is now a secondary vacuum we just keep upstairs with the wand attachment. To be honest I'm surprised the V6 lasted that long, the amount of hair alone we vacuumed was ridiculous and the V6 didn't have the technology to handle hair like the new ones yet I would only on avg needed to take apart the motor and detangle all the hair maybe once every 12-18 months.

Personally I think that a low profile jack should be < 3 inches, but I've seen jacks as high as 3.75 inches advertised as a low profile jack.
The Costco Torin is listed as 3.34 inches which may work for most ppl, but unfortunately not for me.
Just make sure you know what you want.

ill tell you what is friggin fantastic. My dewalt shop vac. I used that sucker as a ghetto leaf blower, and then used it to suck up all these stinking leaves in the new place.
Finished it off with my excellent costco lawn mower and i didnt have to rake a single damn leaf so far.

Any deals on e scooters, Costco Canada doesn't have the new ninebot max 2 yet. Not sure if I should try those Amazon brands gotrax, hiboy.
Also TV + Internet plan? Must have Chinese channel.

Even back then people complained how its plasticky and overpriced, but honestly it's been great.

Not sure why the terms and conditions say it's excluded when it works.
For anyone using the coupons, it should apply for majority of the products, even if it's excluded
