Great Deals and Congratulations

The Hobo went to Academy during lunch today to prepare for his weekend camping trip and got some really great deals! First of all the Hobo picked up a Kelty sleeping bag for $25 which is like half off of its original price. The reason being that the sleeping bag was in the wrong place on the shelf so the store offered to sell it to the Hobo at the marked price. Then the Hobo picked up a Mossy Oak folding camo chair for like $4.00 off because it was missing the tag and when they ran the price check they ran it for the wrong item. The Hobo tried to argue with the store and pay the diff, but Academy wouldn't hear of it. Yay for Academy; Hobo deals abound!


The Hobo would like to extend congratulations to economist Paul Krugman. It was announced today that Krugman has been awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences...Congrats!
