Summah, Summah, Summah Time! (Part One)
I think I made it clear that summer is my favorite time of the year. Today you are getting a GIANT double dose of savings. Why? Because Memorial Day is upon us. To me, Memorial Day means beaches, pools, grilled hot dogs, and pasta salad, AND 1 year to my wedding day. The first part, therefore, will be a summer extravaganza, and tomorrow’s part will be wedding savings for any of you blushing brides.
Part I: “Don’t you find Kahuna to be a little on the lazy side?”

Part 2: Memorial Day BBQ–Let’s get grilling!
The biggest question is gas or charcoal when barbecuing. Food cooked on a charcoal grill is so yummy but charcoal is so messy and annoying. Charcoal grills are hard to get going and it’s a pain to clean up. Gas is so simple, if you like the taste of lighter fluid.

Weber Q Rolling Cart
I will give you 2 options for this. The cheaper option is from a place called CCEShop, where you save more than just money. (Maybe it’s a religious shop.) The grill is $39.99 at CCEShop. If you don’t trust CCEShop, then I have included a Home Depot option.
It’s a stand up grill on wheels. Cart it wherever you like. It folds up nice and clean to be put away.
Can’t make up your mind?

Gas Charcoal Grill for the WIN!!
And if only the shadow cast by that little umbrella was as expansive as it appears in the picture above!
And my winner is Uniflame Deluxe Portable Gas Grill!!!! But seriously it’s a steal when you look at what your getting for $25. I mean I love the charcoal grill as well…but the one with the portable gas is much more practical…I mean you can carry it wherever you go and you have to pay far less attention to setting something on fire…
