    Not stupid at all. One for me, one for my brother. Or two for me, one for each grill. Or one for me one for a gift, or if buying two does not work for you, just don't order either.

    i don't buy it... but maybe that is because nobody in my part of the world owns an egg.  I wouldn't be able to find another person to split it with even if I advertised it on kijiji

    Doesn't have to be used on an egg. There are adapters for pretty much any grill.

    as mike said, lots have traegers, the rest have gasers.  no one owns any of those grills where a blower could be used.  As a matter of fact there is probably only 4 places in the whole province that sells brisket, that is how little people bbq

    haha no way!?  Eggers are few and far between it seems, I have never ran into another one.  The butcher in town where I bought mine does not carry brisket or pork shoulders so I guess whoever buys an egg from him must only cook steak and chicken.  Which is cool I guess, there is just so much more out there lol.

    Volume deals, Thermoworks does it all the time......buy five Thermapens and the price goes down. The bad news is no one to share the deal with, the good news you have very few competitiors when a lump shipment comes in......

    We have two dealers in town.  My deal has gone over a year without selling a single egg.  I think the odd person buys them but they dont really use them to much.  I have see that building, I imagine they like the weather better in New Orleans

    Key to selling eggs is knowing them.  I have a buddy who started dealing eggs out of his Ace Hardware.  I wandered in and sold two eggs to two seperate guys just looky-looing.  Took 30 minutes total.

    I don't know is anything about the dealer other than he is a butcher and I rarely buy meat from him, he doesn't carry much of what I want.  It's five minutes from my place and I will drive a half hour to get meat from somewhere else.

    Kinda OT, kinda OT*.  After buying my 'spensive yet worth-it Tempurpedic bed, with a 25-year warrantee, I get glossy, heavy-stock, multi-page brochures in the mail from them, monthly, ever since.  
    I will be dead before the end of the warrantee; so, why??  
     
     
    * "Off-topic" and "On-topic" have the same acronyms.  This isn't helpful.

    I think on-topic is implied ;)
