call me crazy, but wouldn't printing and shipping a 400+ page book cost more than $8?

So if you're suffering under this economy ordering a few of these as a replacement for toilette paper might be a good value.

1. Newsmax will sell you a copy for $4.95...

They lose money on every sale but can then say "millions sold"

4. The 12 pack of double rolls of Charmin at $5.99 is a much better deal.

Much softer too.

8. They wanted the covers to be very far apart.

They succeeded.

10. What a rip-off.

Just go to Hubert Flottz's church. His pastor will hook you up for free!
