But they are good deals for those of us still employed. I'm not buying that
premium wine at even $69 but I am looking at villas in Italy for even better
rates than shown above. Some are 50% off of what they were charging and air
fare is down considerably also.

One way to make the economy even worse is to stop spending even more.
Restaurants are offering some deals too. Better to take advantage of the
discounts than to pay tax dollars to support unemployed restaurant workers
collecting unemployment and/or welfare.

Oh, as for the recliner, I wish I could have taken up that deal as mine
bought last year was a bit more.
