A deal you can deal on

This might be a safe bet if you want to have some buddies over to help you do the responsible thing this holiday season: try to pay for your children's gifts through gambling.

Big Lots has a 35-inch by 35-inch table top on sale for $18.88. Has all the right features - places for your chips, drinks and cards. (I've seen similar-size table tops go for $25.)

It's also selling an aluminum case poker set for $14.99. That includes 200 chips, two decks of cards, dealer button and instructions.

And remember, gambling's never a vice if you're doing it for the children.
