how do i explain another grill......

deepsouth · 05-03-2013, 08:11 AM

well, you see, i was sort of looking on ebay at the old, but new in box weber smokey joe simpsons grill and while i already have three bge's and a weber otg, i've always liked this little smokey joe for some reason. i was bidding on one a couple weeks ago and i ran the bid up to $92 before i let it go to the eventual winner.

fast forward a couple weeks and another one pops up and i saw the bid was at $61, so i threw in $67.75 with five hours to go and i forgot about it.

got to work this morning and saw where i won the bid at $62, so i guess i'll get to explain this in a few days....

You can day, "$62.00? I thought I bid $6.20! Doh!"

or.....

"Happy (Anniversary/Birthday)!

or.....

At least I didn't build a UDS.....

or.....

It's a Micro BGE!

Let me know how the doghouse is.......

Pull your wife closely. Grab her buy the pants pockets, look deep into her eyes and repeat these words, "I'm sorry, I love you it won't happen again"

Until it does, then repeat.

Geebus!!!!! Like a man can ever have enough grills - she knew that when she married you.

Besides it is a "Homer" grill - don't see that everyday.

LOL. some good ideas! i won't be in the dog house, but i'm sure i'll get an eye roll at some point...... i can handle eye rolls. i'll just grab a beer and go out in the garage and sit with my grills and smokers for a minute.

Just explain it this way....
" I had the option of bidding on another girl or another grill, and look which one I chose, because I looooooooooove you"

oh... and some kiss ass flowers might help too.

Do you have kids? Mother's day is coming up. Would make a nice gift.

BB-Kuhn · 05-03-2013, 08:26 AM

With the selection of grills and smokers you already have, somehow I find it hard to believe that you would be seriously worried about a 62 dollar novelty.

93vpmod · 05-03-2013, 08:27 AM

A reference to the number of pairs of shoes, purses or the like would work at my home.

yeah, not seriously worried about her. more worried about myself.....i can't go into a store that sells grills without picking out 'my next grill'....

You can send it to me if it would help you out.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Yellowhair42 · 05-03-2013, 08:39 AM

Don't say anything.When she sees it just say you've always had it.

Grills are really just cooking tools and you can never have enough tools.
