things you really wanted for christmas -- on sale

I think the best thing about the end of the holiday season are the big sales. Let's face it, we don't always get every Thing we asked for for Christmas. A big sale means I can get more of the Things I wanted but didn't get for Christmas. In the spirit of the holiday season, we decided to mark down a few of our favorite and best-selling Things so you can stretch your dollar, too.

Here are a couple of our favorite DVDs:
Prophecy: The Next 1000 Years, which draws from the prophecies of the Egyptians, the Bible, the Mayans, Hopi Indians, Nostradamus, and Edgar Cayce and makes a strong case that the ancients really did predict the future of modern man. And The Lost Tomb of Jesus reveals what might be the most controversial archaeological discovery of all time. It's a real-life detective story that sheds light on one of the world's most powerful secrets.

The Apprentice Game was one Thing on my list that I didn't get, so I bought it as soon as it went on sale. The game console plugs into the TV for added realism. Just like the TV show, the board game has the same twists and turns - players moving from team to team, dreaded visits to the boardroom and of course the infamous words: “You're fired!”

If board games aren't your Thing, this
All Weather Sports Radio might be for you. It has 20 station presets, an alarm clock and a hold function to prevent accidental button pushing during your activities. And you can easily operate it with one hand. It's perfect for jogging, the gym or any physical activity.

There are a few Things on sale for collectors, too. This talking Steve Irwin figure is one of our bestsellers and one of my personal favorites. I always loved watching him wrestle crocodiles and get up close and personal with wild animals. I think this Thing is so popular because it talks in Steve Irwin’s actual voice. It has two modes: Fun Phrases, which speaks 8 of his famous expressions and Story Mode, which takes you to a croc rescue adventure.

For baseball fans we have this very limited edition of 300
autographed and numbered proof panels commemorating Nolan Ryan’s 300 wins. The panels were never issued for sale to the general public. It has 4 different 2.5" x 3.5" proof cards together on a single 3.5" x 10" panel and comes with a certificate of authenticity. For baseball fans like me, it's a must-have.

Coin collectors will like this Jefferson Coin Set. Each coin is struck with a different colorized portrait of our third President including the original portrait which appeared on the 1938-2004 nickel and the new portraits that appeared on the 2005 and 2006 nickels. Depicting symbols of his life, such as the Declaration of Independence and his famous home, Monticello, they make great keepsakes.

Of course, we have Things on sale all year round. Shop by
price or category to find some of your favorite Things at low prices.
