OT-If i worked for BGE

badinfluence

Just was thinking (have a ton of time on my hands sometimes) that Marketing has missed something huge with the mini max. what that is you ask yourself? If i worked there it would be a small JR. instead of a mini max!.

Just think about it? the mini max is 399.00 and the small is 600.00. so i could market it for like 550.00 for a small JR. but there is no way id pay 550.00 for a mini max. huh....guess I'm bored

If I worked for BGE ... namely the marketing division, I'd design and sell some really cool hoodies and t-shirts and NOT the cheapo China variety, but some good Made in the USA stuff.

Heck yeah, I can envision Green Hoodies and both short and long sleeved tee-shirts with the BGE logo right on front. I'd buy em'

The only issue I'd have is then every dumbass you walk by would ask, "hey do you have a big green egg?"

I would design a Big Green Egg jacket that's a combo of a jacket and backpack.  The jacket will be shaped like a BGE and it'll have multiple compartments around my belly to store lots of stuff.

My dork level isn't high enough to allow me to wear a bge shirt or backpack. )

There's always big green Craig shirts.

Hey guys...you do know don't you that Ardie who took over BGE from the founder Ed Fisher has a background in marketing and all the changes made since his taking over have been of his doings...call them cost containment, re-direction, marketing whatever you want.

They (BGE) are big into giving. Remember years ago on the old forum ( at he time was the BGE forum). I was the One Millionth post on the forum. I am sure that great prize will hit my mail box any day now. PhotoEgg felt so bad he sent me a box from Dizzy Pig. Just saying, BGE is slow.

They could choose more wisely who sells their products. The hardware store in Salado is awesome. My dealer wouldn't know a bge if it wiggled on their face.
Sher-bear went there at christmas to buy me the medium I wanted. The guy kept pushing the small. She got unsure about what to do so she left. Why did he do that? He didn't have a medium in stock.

You do know there are websites where you can design your own t-shirts, aprons, hats, etc to your own design, even a one-off?  Here's mine:

To this day this is still my favorite denim shirt.

While we are going off on apparel here is another of my favorite jackets. Besides this one I also have another white one with the same flying egg but in black ink and then my favorite is a black one silk screened in white. The egger who printed these no longer is in the biz.

@RRP that one with the winged Egg would make a sweet tattoo!

Here is the black one...

Jiminy Ron!   To look at that photo, you'd think you was normal or something, lol!  I guess all those rumors about fiberglass gaskets causing birth defects and turning you into a communist aren't true!
