This year’s Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, with savings before and after
Just got an email from someone who could not find A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on this year’s U.S. TV schedule. It’s there on Thanksgiving day itself – 8 PM (most areas) on ABC. So after you’ve made your own thanksgiving feast in the toaster, you can share Charlie Brown’s! By …
A Charlie Brown Christmas – the music, cheap!

You Can Be Anything Cheap
The Peanuts kiddie hardcover You Can Be Anything is now available remaindered for 60% off the cover price. Now with remainders, I always warn that they may be marked with a remainder mark… but more and more, I’m finding that the copies from both Amazon and B&N aren’t marked, or …

Cheap Willie, even Cheaper Joe
I’m going to send folks over to BN.com for this one, even though (sniff) I don’t get a cent in referal fees from them. But they’ve got the boxed set of Willie & Joe: The World War II Years by Schulz’s pal/idol Bill Mauldin, for less than 1/3 of its …
Cheap Willie & Discount Joe
Just noticed that the $65 two-book boxed hardcover set of Willie & Joe cartoons by Snoopy’s drinking buddy Bill Mauldin is available remaindered for about $20. (And if you’re a classic cartoon fan looking to run up the $25 for free shipping, there’s a remaindered bio of Charles Addams that …
