You want to clear your driveways and walks ASAP after a snowfall or you will just prolong your agony and get major ice build up... and the city will fine you (at least they do here).
A snow blower sounds interesting... this is only our second upcoming winter in our house (we lived in a condo before this and didnt have to worry about it before).
If you cant or wont do it yourself... hire the neighbor kid... or a snow removal service...
You can also buy a product called "liquid heat" or something like that for your driveway to melt built up ice and it wont harm the concrete.
