Why are ACE, Home Depot and Lowes Suddenly Offering Free BBQ Grill Delivery and Assembly?
Are people so woke/liberal/retarded/ignorant/lazy they can't haul a BBQ home and assemble it?

Of course, they are pushing the propane and pellet grills.

I have lots of grills and smokers here. Some of them I built and have plans for more. All are wood/charcoal.

I don't do propane for grilling. If I wanted that, I would just throw it in the kitchen stove broiler.
I've been married so long, I don't even look both ways when I cross the street.

Going full retard is not being able to assemble a grill. Or being too lazy to do so. Or not knowing how to use a screwdriver.

That is full retard, bud.

Doesn't happen here.

Because tying up employees to deliver and assemble for FREE makes them money?

They are still paying delivery guys. Most appliances are taking too long to get so they need to fill up the truck.

People are driving smaller cars, and many can’t fit the boxed grills, which are bulky, into them.

Propane and natural gas are being phased out. The grills will be obsolete and worthless by 2023. Caveat emptor.

on the topic of BBQ's

I've purchased many over the years and it doesn't matter how much I spend on them they rot after a few years - even covered. The flanges that go over the burners rust and rot and the burners rust and rot.

Nothing goes as planned and nothing seems as it is. Most everyone's mad here; you may have noticed I'm not all there myself...and now I'm afraid we must get on to the more regrettable stage of our brief acquaintance.

Putting them together is an entire day of aggravation. It's a bitch.
I need a new grill and I just want to get a Coleman camper grill because they are put together.

Unless you drop some serious cash, you will get a inferior grill. Who wants to pay for shipping and spend time assembling a piece of junk? If all you can afford is a piece of junk that might burn some of the things on your grill and undercook others, you might as well do it the free assembly and delivery way.

They’re trying to get you to buy things they know are not worth buying.

Because sales are falling off a cliff. House sales are tanking so less money spent on "new house stuff" like new grills. People are about tapped out.

I mean, I could take a couple hours and have a nice afternoon project. Or I could buy the one that's already assembled, for the same price. Hmmm. What's that about full retard?

Propane cost more than it did last year.
Meat cost more than it did last year.

There are more important things to buy than a propane barbecue or pellet grill.
