So we all must know about the big Home Depot clearance event going on with Weber grills.
I went out on Monday and saw a OTS $20 off MSRP but nothing that was low that i was hearing about.
We have a storm going on here in the North East, so i dropped the wife off to get food as I went to HD. Prices were lower! but they had nothing
After going home and eating i decided i would make a small run and went to 2 more stores. The first has a 18' black OTS for $20 and that was it. I can get a 22 black OTS all day long for $25 in my area.
Went out to the next store and they had two Perfromer Silvers, so i grabbed one. Thought i would leave the next one for the next BBQ lover, but might just go into the hands of someone buying it and putting it on CL for double the price. Interesting thing i found out was that the price ended with 3 cents, meaning in 3 weeks the grills will be marked to 1 penny and then sent to the dumpster....that is what the clerk told me. I would think that would never happen with a Weber grill.
I am happy with the purchase since the 3 things i want on my OTG is a table, and a thermometer, and a far distant a lid holder. The silver model was $58 but i think the Platinum is $78 and the Gold must be $68 I assume.
Ill go out tomorow morning see if i can get a Performer Platinum, i have 4 more stores i can hit in the morning. Hope i become a new Performer Platinum owner instead. Then will see what the plans will be for the other 2 grills.
Either way my other plan is to eBay the grate, and the handle. Then buy a wooden handle through WKC and the gourmet rack. I did the same with my gasser, sold the grates, and bars on eBay and upgraded them. Smart huh.
