Why are trampolines so expensive now? Where can I get one cheaper?

Question

I distinctly remember them being $99.99. Every Wal Mart you went to had them outside with that big price tag "$99.99". Now it's like, you get one for $150 you're lucky. Wal mart doesn't even sell them anymore. What happened? I really want one, badly. They're fun, and they're good exercise, which is my main reason. Where can I get one the cheapest?

Answer 1

Inflation happened. It could have been $99 dollars last week but then the cost of gas goes up, thousands of people get laid off and the housing market goes berserk and everything gets a little bit more expensive.. bit by bit..

Are you sure Wal Mart are no longer carrying them because I see plenty of trampoline selection on thier website. Don't mistake "no longer selling" with "out of stock" which alot of stores are out of stock now or have very limited supply because summer is already over at these stores...

Most major retail stores who carry outdoor play/playground equipment should sell trampolines ...
