Goin' to th' City!!!

[Huskee]

Congrats Bones. Sounds like a great day!

[Mr. Bones]

Boom.
Pictures.







Online it said "In Stock" at th' KC store...we drove up there, looked at a exotic car show that was breakin' up/leavin' from where we parked...Ferraris, Lambos, 280Z, 'Vettes, Ford GT500, etc. Very nice!!!
We moseyed on over into th'(HUGE) store, got some directions, an' went to th' coookers area. I kept my blinders on alla th' way.

I found th 26.75, quickly checked th' tag to verify th' $199 price, then an associate came along, to help.
I pointed, an' he commenced to typin' on his lil pad device, ringin' me up, etc.
Then, he looked up, an' told me "Sorry, Sir this says we have none in stock."
Now, that wasn't workin' real good, like, fer me, after drivin such a long ways, dang it.
I jus' smiled, innocently, like, an very politely asked: "Whatta 'bout that one, right there???
He looked puzzled, initially, an' went back to typin' diligently on his pad. Then, he got out a cell phone, an' called for guidance, or permission, best I can reckon...
Very hush-hush stuff, apparently
Long story short, I got th' Last o' th' Mohicans from KC NFM, cause they were on Clearance.
It came with a set of charcoal baskets, an' I even un-assed the $39~ for a new cover!
Them baskets come with, normally? Anyone? Or did I jus' get lucky, since they was sittin' in th' floor model?
It was already fully assembled, Bonus Points!
Plus, they loaded it into Dee-Wight's truck, an lashed her all down secure, like.

Yeah, I know, "Rednecks Gone Wild", right???

[Huskee]

Yeah the baskets came with mine, but mine are as shiny as they came since the SnS trumps them. That's a heckuva deal for $two hunnit.

[Mr. Bones]

Thanks fer th' basket info, Huskee, appreciate it!
Figgered I might never see a New $199 26.75, least in this life

[MBMorgan]

Nice! Congrats!

[Mr. Bones]

Oh, forgot to mention, the Speedway is jus' across th' street, there, an' we also got to watch/hear/feel folks out on th' track, doin' 'Th' NASCAR Experience' deal, roarin' around th' track mighty fast!
