Egg is going to pay for itself in no time

I’ve done 5 cooks on my Egg and I am still have a ¼ bag of Royal Oak. Figure I will get at least 2 more cooks out of it. At this rate only about 40 or so more cooks and this Egg will pay for itself in coal savings.

    Not sure what you are using as a benchmark but good luck.  Sounds like you needs a couple more eggs!

    Exactly. Mrs. TOTN bought 2 dresses at the mall the other day, both 30% off. Saved me twice as much money as she would have if she'd only bought 1.

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    Not to mention that since getting the Egg, we eat out far less often since what comes off the Egg is as good or better than anything to be found in local restaurants, and healthier too.  And with a family of five, even the most middle of the road places to eat are usually at least $50-$60 after tip. 

    The only exception we make is the occasional Tex-Mex at a couple of our favorite places.
