Alternatively, let the leaves lie - which is beneficial to insects as well. And lets your neighbours enjoy life :)

But a suggestion from the post you're replying to is using an electric one.

Let the leaves lie on the grass sure (and mulch them assuming it's not too many) but you still need a blower for all the other areas; concrete, landscaped rock, etc. They're also used for snow all the time where I live. Nothing wrong with an electric blower.

i'm still trying to figure out why a blower is going to do anything for snow? You know that snow blowers exist right? I can't imagine anything other than a snowblower/shovel is going to work effectively on anything that isn't a very small layer of fluffy snow, god forbid you get any heavy snowfall, or it thaws and refreezes. Just seems like a complete nightmare to me.
