Went to Walmart today. The last time I was there back in February, they had the grillmates 26.5 grill grates out for sale, and I wanted to pick one up for my old 26er. Sadly, they were out of those and no longer carry them, just like Amazon.
BUT...
On my way out of the store, I noticed a lonely 14.5 WSM with no box on display. It had a very faded tag on it. I read it and it said reduced to $49.98. Got a toothless manager who confirmed the price.
Bought it immediately.
The downside is that the lid is bent and won't make a seal and it's missing the little rubber grommit to insert a probe thermometer, but otherwise perfect. I figure a call to Weber will fix both problems!
I'm looking forward to using it. For most of my smokes it will be fantastic.
