I fell sorry for your car.
Next time just let it roll a little then let of the gas so it can roll back and then floor it again.

I've plowed through stuff like that. Wouldn't want to drive for miles in it, but for short distances . . . . never had a problem this weekend driving a ways on an unplowed road, just decided it would be wise to go back in case I got stuck two miles in.

What Blizzaks? What size?

I have the WS-60 in the OEM AP1 size and never had one single problem, even in unplowed alleys that had 8+ inches of snow and ice. My roommate's RX-8 on Dunlop winter "sport" tires got stuck every few feet.
