I was looking for a large mat for under my new grill. I wanted something that was big enough to extend under the side trays/burner as well.
Napoleon 's Large Grill Mat (Item #68002) is 90x35 inches, so pretty darned big. Its MSRP is $89.99, and that's the price listed at almost every retailer that carries it, with one noted exception.
Best Buy has it for $21.99.
I was skeptical until it came. It shipped via Purolator from Shanty Bay, ON, which is the location of Napoleon's Barrie, ON warehouse. It was the 68002 item in the original Napoleon packaging, directly from Napoleon via Best Buy. The return address on the shipment was:
Napoleon Logistics Centre
2621 Gore Road
Shanty Bay, Ontario
Ordered May 19
Shipped May 26
Arrived May 28
$9.99 shipping, but it qualifies for the $35 minimum free shipping; so, we also ordered a $15 toy that came from Richmond via Canada Post...
Edit: To alleviate skepticism, here it is installed under my grill:

Thanks OP - was looking at this when we bought our new PRO500RSIBPSS but definitely wasn't paying $100+ tax in for it. I "pre-ordered" The Last of Us 2 for the free shipping.

Are BB pre-orders easy to cancel? Ie, can I do it online vs. calling them?
You can get cheaper mats like this at Costco. Ive stopped using them because moisture and bugs get trapped underneath and can damage the foor its supposed to protect.
Thanks op! My Napoleon BBQ is huge with two lids so this should fit. It will also look good on my grey composite deck. Just need to add something for free shipping, $16.99 for my location.

Agreed, that's a risk with wood or composite decks. They can cause bleaching, too.
Ordered 2, thanks OP. jugojugo, you can have my second one if you want it, if not, I'll offer it up to a friend of mine. This is really massive. I'm actually going to have to trim it slightly to fit inside my stone BBQ nook, which happens to be 89.5" wide. Likely have to turn it around as well....as not to piss off my Weber Summit and Smokey Mountain. Good price.
