I went to a Dere days in NJ several years ago (dealership is gone now) and entered a sweepstakes that corporate Deere was running at the time (dropped my name and address in a box). We sat and watched a movie and drooled on the new stuff, ate some food and went home. I got a letter in the mail months later from Deere Corp. that I had won a prize in the sweepstakes and could pick it up at the dealership. Imagine my surprise when I saw the new tool box with a complete set of 1/2" drive sockets, combination wrenches, screwdrivers, and pliers. Must have been over $500 worth of tools. I haven't seen a Deere days advertised in a long time in my area, now north east PA. Thanks for bring back a nice memory! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
As far as getting a discount, check on the Deere web site. They have monthly specials that you can print coupons for on stuff like oil and filters and such.
