Deal of the day

I was snooping around my local Borders store before coming to the salt mine and found a Martin Truex 2007 desk calendar with 1:64 diecast car for a buck. (It looks pretty much like this one, except mine has a Bass logo above the Oreo and Snap-On stickers on the side.) So I grabbed it. Sure, we're 45 days into 2007, and I've got all the calendars I need, and all I really wanted was the car anyway. And for $1, you can't go but so wrong.

On the same shelf was a Mark Martin calendar, with the No. 6 car as a prize, marked down to $6. They had Junior's calendar and car for $8, Ryan Newman's for $12 and Matt Kenseth's for $17.

Good thing I didn't have my heart set on walking out of there with a Tony Raines or Carl Edwards calendar.

You could have found a Bill Elliott calendar, that would truly have been the deal of the day!
