Black Friday Snow Blower Deals 2025: How to Pick the Right Model Fast

Looking for a black friday snow blower that actually fits your property, your tractor, and your budget? This guide cuts through the noise. We’ll compare skid steer vs 3-Point hitch, explain single stage vs two stage, give you a quick width vs PTO HP reference, solve common pain points, and finish with a Farmry shortlist that includes verified 3-Point and skid steer models—now with the 72″ skid steer you flagged.

Why Black Friday Is the Smart Time to Buy (Price Lock, Stock, Shipping)

1. Price you can plan on
   Black Friday concentrates deals, bundles, and (on some stores) Price Lock programs that rarely appear later in winter. If a code is published on-site, apply it at checkout and capture the discount before limited inventory disappears.

2. Best selection before the storm
   When the first big storm hits, shelves thin out. Black Friday is when stock and variety peak—ideal if you care about clearing depth, chute controls, electric start, heated grips, or LED light options.

3. Friendlier delivery math
   Freight on large implements hurts in January. Black Friday is when you’ll often see reduced delivery fees or free shipping, which lowers your total price and keeps more money for maintenance parts later in the season.

Quick moves: sign in, add candidates to your cart, check availability, don’t wait on “limited” widths, and read the promo/Price Lock terms before you agree.

Skid Steer vs 3-Point Hitch Snow Blower (How to Choose)

Skid Steer Snow Blower

• Why choose it: Maximum agility for sidewalks, storefronts, and parking bays; tight turning; fast passes; hydraulic power that really throws snow.

• Trade-offs: Upfront cost can be higher; you must match hydraulic flow (GPM) and pressure to the blower’s requirements.

3-Point Hitch (PTO) Snow Blower

• Why choose it: Uses the tractor you already own; straightforward maintenance; many widths; great for long rural driveways and farm lanes.

• Trade-offs: Rear-mounted work means more looking back; matching width to PTO HP is essential.

Rule of thumb: Complex sidewalks or storefronts → skid steer. Long driveways or farm roads + 25–65 PTO HP tractor → 3-Point PTO.

Single Stage vs Two Stage: What Changes?

Single stage (one-stage)

• Pros: Lightweight, compact, excellent on fluffy snow for short sidewalks/patios.

• Cons: Lower clearing depth and more clog-prone in wet slush; not meant for gravel.

Two stage

• Pros: Auger feeds an impeller that throws snow farther; far better in wet/deep snow; higher throughput.

• Cons: Heavier, pricier, and asks for routine maintenance (shear pins, belts, chain tension).

Good options to seek: electric start (for sub-zero starts), LED light, heated grips, adjustable skid shoes, and for cordless units, a brushless motor with spare batteries.

Width vs PTO HP: Quick Reference (3-Point PTO)

Always verify against the model page and leave 15–25% power headroom for wet snow, slopes, or deeper berms.

• 48–54″ → ~15–35 PTO HP (short rural driveways, patio, frequent powder)

• 60″ → ~18–45 PTO HP (standard driveways, moderate storms)

• 72″ → ~25–65 PTO HP (longer lanes, deeper drifts, frequent storms)

• 84″ → ~30–100 PTO HP (heavy-snow belts, commercial or extended farm routes)

Real Problems, Practical Fixes

Wet-snow clogging
Pick two stage and a larger impeller; clear safely (PTO off, engine off) with a clean-out tool; moderate your feed rate; consider anti-stick chute spray before a wet storm.

Drivetrain maintenance
Start the season with spare shear pins and belts in your cart; check belt/chain tension monthly; raise skid shoes slightly on gravel to reduce impacts.

Night visibility & comfort
LED light kits, reflective markers, heated grips, and known turn-around pads reduce mistakes and fatigue.

Farmry Shortlist (Verified Models & Ranges)

Below are Farmry’s commonly referenced models for PTO tractors and skid steers. Specs vary by batch and may update; treat these as buyer’s guide ranges and confirm final details on the product page before purchase.

3-Point PTO (Two-Stage)

• TSB48 — 48″
  Typical pairing: ~15–35 PTO HP (compact tractors).
  Why it fits: Smaller footprint, 20″-class impeller, adjustable skid shoes; ideal for short lanes and sidewalks where maneuverability matters.

• TSB60 — 60″
  Typical pairing: ~18–45 PTO HP.
  Why it fits: Workhorse width for standard driveways; a step-up impeller improves clearing depth without overwhelming compact tractors.

• TSB72 — 72″
  Typical pairing: ~25–65 PTO HP.
  Why it fits: Bigger housing and ~24″ impeller for stronger mass flow and longer throws—great for repeated storms or long lanes.

• TSB84 — 84″ (where offered)
  Typical pairing: ~30–100 PTO HP.
  Why it fits: Oversized capacity for extended farm roads or commercial routes; confirm ballast and PTO headroom.

Skid Steer (Two-Stage, Hydraulic)

• SSB60 — 60″ Skid Steer Snow Blower
  Hydraulic: standard-flow (commonly ~16–21 GPM).
  Loader pairing: typically mid-size units.
  Why it fits: Tight sidewalks and storefronts where agility dominates; covers a full path without over-width in tight grids.

• SSB72 — 72″ Skid Steer Snow Blower
  Hydraulic: 16–21 GPM (standard-flow).
  Loader pairing: ~45–75 HP loaders.
  Hardware highlights: 24″ impeller, manual 360° chute.
  Why it fits: The “just right” middle—more throughput than 60″ but friendlier power requirements than 84″. (Your screenshot shows a Black Friday price of $4,749 at time of capture; pricing can change.)

• SSB84 — 84″ Skid Steer Snow Blower
  Hydraulic: standard-flow (commonly ~16–21 GPM).
  Loader pairing: often ~50–100 HP.
  Why it fits: Maximizes pass width and productivity on parking lots and community arteries; check flow/pressure so it truly throws snow at full performance.

Skid steer sizing advice:
If you’re wasting time on too many passes, step up to 72″ or 84″. If routes are narrow and full of obstacles, 60″ saves time by reducing corrections. Always match your blower’s hydraulic GPM requirement to the loader’s available flow.

How to Lock Price & Stock on Black Friday

1. Open the Black Friday page and pick your platform and width. Watch the countdown and “limited” badges.

2. Add to cart and sign in. Confirm delivery windows and lift-gate/offload options.

3. Apply the promo shown on the page (if any) and make sure the price actually updates before you pay.

4. If a Price Lock program is offered, read the terms and keep the order number so you can file a price claim if the tag dips during the window.

5. Track the shipment and prep your maintenance kit (shear pins, belts, anti-stick spray) before the next storm.

FAQ

Q1. When do Black Friday snow blower deals start?
Early previews land in November; the best deals cluster around Black Friday through Cyber Monday. Add your pick to the cart and monitor stock—popular widths go first.

Q2. Should I choose a skid steer or a 3-Point hitch snow blower?
Skid steer for complex sidewalks and storefronts where agility matters; 3-Point PTO for long driveways or farm lanes when you already own a compatible tractor.

Q3. Is a two-stage better for wet snow?
Yes. Two stage designs improve clearing depth and throw distance in dense, wet snow. Single stage excels in fluffy snow, short runs, and tight storage.

Q4. How do I match blower width to PTO horsepower?
As a rule: 48″ ≈ 15–35 HP; 60″ ≈ 18–45 HP; 72″ ≈ 25–65 HP; 84″ ≈ 30–100 HP. Leave extra headroom for wet, heavy storms or slopes.

Q5. Do battery snow blowers work in severe cold?
Modern brushless motor units work, but runtime falls in deep cold. Keep packs warm and rotate batteries; for long lanes or heavy storms, PTO or gas two-stage remains the productivity leader.

Final Take

The fastest way to land the right black friday snow blower is to choose your platform first (skid steer vs 3-Point PTO), default to two stage for wet or deep snow, and match width to PTO HP (or hydraulic flow for skid steers) with a margin for real weather. With Farmry’s verified 3-Point lineup (48″ / 60″ / 72″ / 84″ where available) and skid steer choices (60″ / 72″ / 84″), you can dial in a setup that clears cleanly, stays reliable, and takes full advantage of Black Friday deals—so your driveways and sidewalks are consistently, completely clear all winter long.
