So, I just wanted to share my recent events with kegging. I feel extremely lucky, grateful and excited about it.
To begin, I kept telling my wife I wanted to get a kegerator for Christmas (few weeks before then my old mini fridge went dead) and the price for the danby chill an tap was $399 at walmart online.
Low an behold my wife and mother teamed up and got the kegerator for me!! for my birthday 3 days after christmas. I followed the shipping points and picked up the kegerator when it came in. When I brought it home I found out that it was missing the CO2 tank, tower, taps, lines. Pretty much just the fridge was in the box.
I called walmart and they recommended bringing it back.
The thing was I couldnt take it back for a few days because I had to borrow a truck pick it up. So they sent out a replacement. HERE's where it gets tricky, in the process of transporting it "got lost" and they AUTOMATICALLY refunded the money. Even before I had the chance to take back the original fridge. My mind was automatically thinking free fridge but my conscious got to me and I wanted to take it back regardless.
When I got there The woman at walmart told me I was already refunded and that I was an idiot for not trying to keep it. She wouldnt take it back and told me to take it home. :rockin:
So essentially I got a free kegerator fridge11:rockin: and with most of the parts from my previous kegerator (co2 tank, lines, etc) I decided to use the $400 dollars to go in on a dual tap tower with perlick taps for ($131)
This was an ordeal since december 28 and now almost a month later have just about completed the kegerator.
Just installed the taps and tower today!!!!
(Last two pictures are of a gasket/ o ring that came in the bag with the tap handle, i am clueless as to where this sits in with the handle or faucet setup, any ideas? I looked up diagrams but did not figure out where to place it, didnt seat right or look right)
