how I Got me a good deal on a smoker

Slightly off topic here but I just have to share this.

I have been eying this masterbuilt electric smoker for some time now

I have been using one like this

Not enough room and it never got a pork butt done.

So anyway, I got a $100 gift card to Bass Pro from work for Christmas. Their price was $269. Lowes price was $224. I called them and they said they would price match. That same day I got a call from a guy interested in a mini fridge I had on Craigs List for $50. ( I am always selling stuff on Craigs List) I also had a $50 gift card to a Smokehouse That i won through a radio station 6 months ago. I sold that to a guy at work for $30.
So it breaks down like this
$269 minus price=$224 minus gift card $124 minus 60 from sales add in sales tax Total $68 out of pocket expense

. Not bad for a $269 Smoker
St. Louis still ribs going on this weekend
