Wow! Yesterday was a very kettle-rific day for me and I figured I should share!
A couple weeks ago, I spotted a Simpson's SJ in Cincinnati for $10 on FBM. I secured that very quickly! My Dad lives in Cincinnati, but he was up in Columbus visiting me, plus he had week-long tickets to the Memorial Tournament, so I needed an agent.
@coffeeld volunteered his services and executed them perfectly, despite living about an hour away from where the grill was located.
@coffeeld met with my Dad yesterday around lunchtime to exchange the Simpson's SJ.
Boom! One grill secured.
Then, I have been working on my Dad for quite some time to make the jump to charcoal, and that is a pursuit that still lives on. However, I convinced him to sell his cheapo Charbroil gasser and buy a WeberQ 3200 with tank, stand, and cover off FBM for $50! So he goes and meets the seller yesterday evening to make the purchase.
Boom! Two grills secured - but it isnt the WeberQ.......
On the way to the seller's house, guess what my Dad spots on the curb? A nice looking G code faded black who seems to be asking for a bath and a new home! This just happens to be my birth year as well! My Dad loads the G code into his truck, and goes to meet the seller of the WeberQ.
Boom! Three grills secured.
Not a bad haul for a hump day, if I do say so myself! I cant wait until Father's Day weekend so that I can get these grills in my possession!
