As long as we get out of the crazy rainy weather we’ve been having we are approaching Bar-B-Q Season and instead of fighting it out at the public pits why not buy your own griller. Indigo Living has a bunch of great grills available from a 17″ Arlington Grill for only $410 all the way up to a fancy Georgia Burner for $1800.

Get ready to grill – and from today onwards you can get a 20-50% discount on all these outdoor accessories from any of their five locations.
