Took advantage of Cabellas last day special on Monday evening. New to the smoker scene but have enjoyed
smoking and drinking with friends who own green eggs. Planned on the maiden launch this weekend consisting of butt, briskett, chicken wings and an old leather shoe that I heard taste well with hickory after 12 hours. Well checked my delivery tracking tonight and delivery is expected Monday. Sorry fellow smokers
I know most newbies are excited and positive but not here. My whole weekend is now down the tubes. Sorry
not looking for newbie smoker advise just anti anxiety advise. Off to drown my depression.
Sincerely,

Look for a bright side. You have a little more time to spend on the forum, ask some questions, and check out the recipe sight. Your first smoke will be better! I am an impatient one my self, especially when it comes to Boy Toys, so I feel your pain.

Hope that you get it and they don't cancel the order.  Cabela's is now saying it was a pricing mistake.

WELCOME!!!! Best folks and help around!!!
Revekl in the fact that you got a MUCH better deal on your Bradley than 90% of the folks on this forum, including me ........... and I pride myself on being a good deal-finder.
Stay close to this site and you'll see great attention to sharing great deals on everything!!!
Once you use your new OBS you'll soon forget the delay ..... plus you need to season it first, anyway!!!

FWIW, I talked to a rep at Cabella's yesterday because their website was showing $299 for the smoker. He said it must have been a problem with the website and would process it over the phone for $199.

I am glad to hear that because 2 of my friends tried to place orders and the $199 was was not there. I will have them call.

So ............ is the Cabela's price for the OBS $299 or $199 plus shipping, right now?
A couple friends are stillinterested in buying at the $199 price, but the $100 discount icon is gone.
Are they honoring the $199 over the phone? Any idea for how much longer?
I keep checking on the 4 for 3 price on Bisquettes on Amazon and have managed to assemble every flvor but mesquite .......... the one I really am low on!!!
Thanks.
