Sorry guys but the world best wife has been named (by me) and mine won. Yesterday we were at kmart and they had there grills on sale (like I need another) so I am standing there looking at the deep discounts and she says why don't you just by both. So I picked up a charcoal masterbuilt that I am going to put on a little trailer and make it into a rental unit for around town and a dual charcoal/gas nexgrill for the house. Great girl. So I am happy as a clam.
Today we are in Sam's and we walk by the everything in the world Jen Air Stainless that sells for just under $1000. It is on sale for $438. She looks at it and says "that one would look better next to the smoker; why don't you buy that one too".
Well I am grill heavy now so my daughter is getting a early Christmas nexgrill. _________________ https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaeloberry |

So, being the worlds best wife, she paid for the grill, put it in the truck, got home and assembled it, and went straight back to work so she could buy you lots of other stuff, right?

That's GREAT Alien that your wife won "BEST WIFE"
My wife wouldn't qualify because if I even MENTION/HINT that I want something (BBQ related or otherwise)...she either tells me to get it or goes ahead and buys it herself for me.
Damn women, what we gonna do with them  _________________ Where rumors end and legend lives forever... |

Sounds like my house...either that or I hint around about it and talk about "maybe" buying it until she gets tired of hearing about it and says "just buy the damn thing already".  |

I was sent something recently on handling the better half aka worlds best wife in matters concerning play time tho the author may be in hiding currently and shall remain nameless... "Sooo, I ordered some new toys last night... after the wife was asleep." I have yet to hear the outcome of this wisdom.  _________________ Backyarder
