Cheap Peanuts books cheaper

Those hardcover Life Is Like a Ten-Speed Bicycle and On and Off the Field volumes have had their prices cut down to $3.99 over at BN. And while you’re there, you can get book adaptations of It’s the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown and Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown for 99 cents each – these are remainders and may have some marking, usually a marker line on one of the edges. And if you’re looking for other remainders to help get you to the $25 free shipping deal, how about this $48 biography of Snoopy’s root beer buddy Bill Mauldin for $4.99? Or a 424 page collection of the fun frontiersman comic Journey: The Adventures of Wolverine MacAlistaire for $3.99 (with volume 2, admittedly thinner, at the same price)?
