This article is sponsored by Ace Hardware.
Summer weekends always seem to arrive faster than expected.
One minute you’re making plans, and the next it’s time to fire up the grill and welcome friends and family.
Whether you’re running low on charcoal, need a few grilling essentials, or want to make a last-minute upgrade, Ace Hardware has you covered with a focused set of deals designed to help keep the good times going.
From July 3–5, find everything you need for backyard cookouts and summer gatherings with special savings during the Hometown Days Summer Events Series.
Big weekend energy, better rewards
If you’re an Ace Rewards member, the timing just gets even better—members earn 2x rewards points all weekend long. And for bigger summer upgrades like a new grill, you’ll earn 3x points on Weber grills priced at $399 and up.
It’s an offer that’s hard to pass up, especially if you’ve already been thinking about upgrading your grill but needed a little nudge to make it happen.
BBQ essentials without the premium markup
Barbecue season can get expensive fast. This weekend’s deals help take some of that pressure off:
- B&B Charcoal All Natural Hickory & Oak Briquettes (17.6 lb.) – Flash deal $7.99 (was $16.99)
- A solid option for getting that smoky, classic BBQ flavor without paying premium lump charcoal prices.
- Loud Mouth, Chef J’s, and Kosmos Q BBQ sauces & rubs – Buy One, Get One 50% off
- An easy chance to try a few new flavors without committing to just one.
If your grilled food ever ends up tasting a bit plain, this is a simple way to fix it.
Beat the bugs before they beat you
Mosquitos can quickly take the fun out of a backyard BBQ.
This year’s Cutter lineup is focused on keeping them under control:
- Cutter Backyard Insect Fogger (16 oz., 2 pack) – Flash deal $9.99 (was $16.99)
- Helps clear the area before guests arrive so you’re not spending the evening swatting insects.
- Cutter Insect Repellent (6 oz., 2 pack) – Flash deal $9.99 (was $12.99)
- An easy, grab-and-go option for guests who insist they don’t need spray until they do.
- Cutter Citronella Bucket Candle (17 oz.) – Free with $40 purchase (in-store only)
- A small bonus for doing the shopping you were already going to do.
A hidden win: fewer last-minute store runs
The real benefit of these deals isn’t just saving money—it’s avoiding the usual scramble.
Running out of charcoal mid-cook, realizing too late you forgot bug spray, or paying full price because you need something right away are all common summer frustrations.
These promotions are designed to help you get ahead of the rush.
Stock up once, and you’ll be ready for backyard gatherings, weekend cookouts, and whatever else the season brings.
Hometown Days sweepstakes
As part of the final Hometown Days celebration over the Fourth of July weekend, participating stores are also running sweepstakes.
Customers can enter in-store for a chance to win an American Flag Weber Kettle Grill, with winners announced July 5.
The bottom line
From July 3-5, Ace Hardware is all about smoothing out the usual summer frustrations—bugs, fuel, BBQ basics, and those inevitable emergency store runs.
If a cookout was already in the cards, this is just a nudge to make it easier, cheaper, and that bit more relaxed.
