Half-Off Super Bowl XL Merchandise!

Quick... You have three hours! Super Bowl XL merchandise is being sold for half-off yesterday's prices at the Commerica Park souvenir store. The sale runs until 6 p.m.

Judging by the amount of merchandise still on store shelves all around downtown Detroit, I would think other stores will follow suit.

Have you seen stores discounting their stuff? Add a comment and share the info.

Right Arm on eBay

If you're in need of a right arm, one Steelers fan is selling his on eBay.

See the auction here.

I guess people will do just about anything for Super Bowl XL tickets. After two bids the price is up to $20.50.

That's an Awful Lot of "Terrible Towels"

A morning press release from eBay (that I'm just reading now) proves just how popular those yellow Steelers towel things are. According to the release:

"Over 3,300 Terrible Towels, Steelers fans' swinging sensation, have flown off eBay's virtual shelves over the past two weeks. Average selling price has been $15. Listings are receiving an average of 24 bids per item, demand comparable to Apple iPod nanos on eBay during the holidays."

Football-Shaped Salamis!!!

This weekend we heard from the folks at Ilowski Sausage Company in St. Clair. They had football-shaped sausages and we wanted to see pictures. "Not only are they realistic - they are delicious!," said an email from Jeanne over at Ilowski Sausage.

Well... Here they are. In the picture below, you see owner Joe Ilowski with a whole rack of his football-shaped salamis. Want one? Give them a call: (810) 329-9117
