I was told by a Lowes salesman that they don't clearance NEW big ticket items like that anymore, unless it is a Factory authorized sale. They reduce the price if something has been brought back. Not sure how true it really is everywhere, but I haven't seen any of the lawn and garden stuff clearance priced in the Rochester Hills store since I was told that...
I always use a Lowes charge card and get 5% off everything you buy there....
FYI - I bought a Weber Genesis grill about 3 years ago and they are 10x better than any Char Broil or any of the cheaper brands. I bought the small lower end dual burner one without any side burners or frills as there are only 2 of us at home. I just want a grill that gets hot and cooks meat! It heats up fast and can get over 500 degrees. It hardly flares up because the burners run around the perimeter of the grill and not directly underneath the cooking area..You'll like it...
grr
