Once upon a time, Labor Day meant the end of summer. But those days are over, and you're now free to wear white and grill out as far into September (and October, and November...) as you please. In fact, it's recommended that you do so, because now is the best time to find deals on grills. Case in point:

Egg-shaped grills are popular for good reason: They heat quickly, and they're excellent at maintaining temperature. If you want to see what all the fuss is about, this is a great entry-level buy. Its 153 square inches of cooking area are perfectly adequate if you're just getting into cooking out, and the grill's compact size is a plus for portability (hence the handles). It also features dual air-flow dampers for precise control and a hinged locking lid for easy access to the coals.

Grilling doesn't have to be something you do only at home! The Stok Tourist, at only 10 lbs., can accompany you anywhere. (Probably, like, a doctor's appointment isn't the best place to take it, but maybe a campsite? Or tailgating?) At under $30, it's also crazy cheap. As far as features, it has 104 square inches of grilling space, collapsible legs, and perhaps best of all, a piezo igniter (a.k.a what they use in potato cannons).
