I keep seeing an ad come across my Facebook about a buy one for $777 get one every 5 years for “free”. I see that there’s a $100 shipping fee assessed each time, but that still seems like peanuts.

The photo above shows the list of grills that are included in the deal.
Realistically I think they assume people won’t redeem them. Five years is enough time to want an upgrade anyway so it works if this is legit. Or they expect people will forget or will stop grilling or the company could go under and there won’t be any grills anyways.
Edit: did not read the exact specifics. My deal was buy a grill and get the purchase price refunded 7 years later. Maybe it’s not as legit?
I bought this deal last year for a 700D and the deal is probably legit.
1. I was already looking for a pellet grill and z grills was a solid budget option from what I had researched.
2. I made the purchase while on vacation and had to reschedule the delivery because the grill was going to be there before I returned home. I have never had anything this large delivered so fast.
3. I’ve used the grill on an almost weekly basis for everything from smoking the thanksgiving turkey (best I’ve ever had) to baking chocolate cookies and everything comes out stupid good. It’s just a giant oven that is wood powered so it makes anything you could bake taste better.
4. It doesn’t heat up the house which is important in AZ and is also insulated enough to have no problem in a mild winter.
5. The 700 model at least is far from a gas guzzler. It has a huge hopper but I can easily do two 6 hour cooks without ever seeing the hand guard that people want to remove for some reason. I’d imagine the 1000 series has a silo for a pellet hopper. I’ve never switched pellets, just let one bag blend into the next but almost every model has a good pellet emptying system.
In total even if I never receive a refund I still would be happy with this grill. I have researched the company and believe that they will be around for a while and they have already paid out on their first round of this promotion so I have reason to believe I’ll have a check for the original purchase in another few years.
