...... on George W. Bush's memoir book if I pre-order it.

If they discount it another 54%, I might think about it. :P

13. Ewww
You'd have to look at that mug every day. Cut up a grocery bag and make a cover for it, at least.

6. It might be worth 5 bucks or so, just for laughs
Wait another six months and it will be in the bargain section at the store.

Sounds like it's the revisionist best seller of forever. bush claims he considered dropping cheney from the ticket in 2004, and that he was a dissenter from the decision to invade Iraq.

If the rest of the book is anything like the few little snippets I've read about, it might be a hoot.

7. I'd Take It For Free
I've got an old shelf in the garage that needs one leg propped up a bit.

9. I'm discounting it altogether.
Would that the world would follow suit.

10. They had "Going Rogue" on the heavily discounted table last time I was there. It was over 50% off.

14. It was $5 at Half Price Books a couple weeks ago
Waaaaaaaay in the back by the clearance racks... you may not be able to see, but there are layers of price tags in the upper right where it had been marked down repeatedly.
