Oh, Really?

Opening up today's shopping news---not called that, but it might as well be--I note that, on the front page of the Joe's (formerly known as "GI Joe's") flyer an M1A carbine is prominently featured.

List price: $1299.00.

Sales price: $799.00

blink, blink. Wha'?

Yep, it really does say that.

And this:

• As the GI's main battle rifle in WWII and Korea, it delivered near flawless function and stellar reliability.
• Your collection is incomplete without one!

The marketing wonders never cease...
