    Default If you procrastinate long enough

    you just might get what you need for free. Our gas grill died last year and DH was putting off buying a new grill because he did not want to assemble it. I have been looking for a 3 tiered plant stand. I just have not seen one to my liking. We went to my brothers house yesterday for a cookout and my DH mention to him that our grill died. It so happened my brother was given a grill by someone, he in turn offered us his less that a year old grill. They also are getting ready for heavy trash pick up and guess what I saw in their pile? A 3 tiered wrought iron plant stand exactly what I have been looking for.
    I feel so green today.
