I want to buy a WSM for a family member for Christmas, and it appears my slacker ways have once again betrayed me--I can't find one anywhere. I've tried:

<UL TYPE=SQUARE>

<LI>Barbecues Galore (just ran out!)

<LI>Wal-Mart

<LI>Target

<LI>Home Depot

<LI>Orchard Supply Hardware

<LI>True Value Hardware

<LI>Ace Hardware

<LI>Epic Pool & Patio

<LI>Palo Alto Hardware

[/list]


Worst case, I can order one from WalMart.com for $153 plus shipping, which would show up by and by. It's for an adult, so it's not desparately important that I have the smoker on Tuesday, but I was sorta hopin'...

So: has anyone around here seen one in a store that I might go and buy? Anyone have a line on places that usually keep 'em in stock? I don't mind paying full retail if I can get it before Tuesday.

Thanks, and merry Xmas!
 
Yeah, I saw that too; unfortunately the closest House2Home is a 90-minute drive (each way) from here, in Modesto. And the other thing that comes with the holidays is family--I don't think I'll have a chance to sneak out for 3+ hours to make the trip. But thanks for thinking of me.

Cheers,
 
Larry,

The only retail store that I know of that carries the WSM in the SF Bay Area is Barbeques Galore. Did you check all the South Bay locations? They now have stores in Cupertino (Stevens Creek Blvd) and San Jose (Almaden Plaza) as well as the older stores in Campbell (Pruneyard) and Palo Alto (next to Stanford).

If you can drive a bit further, they have other stores in the East Bay; check their site at www.bbqgalore.com for a list of locations.

Good luck!
Chris
 
Thanks, but unfortunately modern automation was my nemesis, rather than my benefactor. I asked at the McCarthy Ranch store, and they said they'd just sent theirs to the Campbell store. All their locations are wired together, and they can access inventory from any store, and they said they didn't have any in the south bay. They suggested Dublin... again, I don't think I can make the drive before Xmas.

By the way, I like the site. It was the thing that swung me away from buying an offset firebox smoker (probably the New Braunfelds Silver Smoker).

Thanks,
