Not sure what is close to Dawsonville, but I would save a bit longer and get the large one. Easier to roast a whole pork loin (or two) great piece of cooking equipment.
There's a Big Green egg shop in the shopping center across the street from the GA Premium Outlet Mall on GA400 in Dawsonville.
Prices seem to be in line with every place else I've seen. Trade a gun for a large egg. You'll make out better!
When items are as popular and exclusive as these, you see very little variance in pricing. Why discount them when they sell out constantly.
Plus driving 48 miles to save $10-20 is hardly worth it.
I went through this same thing last year, looked everywhere.
Ended up buying a Kamado Joe.. not saying its better but you should at least take a look and compare features/value.. I LOVE mine
