I went to Lowe's yesterday and bought a $400 already assembled BBQ. I
didn't watch them actually load the BBQ and when I got home I discover they gave me a $500 BBQ. What should I do?

1. put some steaks on to celebrate
then donate the difference to a charity, or Kerry.

4. $400! Holy cow!
What does the thing do for that much money? It better butcher the cow and wipe your ass afterwards for that much money! I prefer a simple charcoal BBQ myself.

Anyway, Lowe's is an evil corporation so I would just keep it. It must be good Karma for something nice you did.

5. Keep it and measure it off against the times you've been fucked.
Sometimes good things happen for a reason too.

6. Really, to make it right
they should pick up the barb, and give you the $400 unit. But delivery would probably run them close to $100, so I bet if you called, they'd say keep it.

7. I'd say...
Spend the hundred bucks on marinade and a nice set of grill stuff (the big spatula, fork, etc).. and get some nice filets..

(Forgive me, Jimmie Johnson, for I know not what I do) :9

Heyo

10. You are easily influenced by TV commercials
And you have no knowledge of nutrition.

You are like one of those guys on the tube.
