Title: Fingerhut.

We get Fingerhut catalogs all of the time. It just happens. For those who don't know what it is, look here (http://www.fingerhut.com/). Anyway, I was looking at a few items and their prices in a catalog, and even I was impressed by how high they were. A PlayStation 2 costs $199.99. Wal-Mart's (and, really, just about anywhere else) price? $129 something. An Nintendo DS Lite goes for $199.99. Wal-Mart's price? Around $130. A Wii at Fingerhut is a staggering $399.99. Wal-Mart's price? $249 something. Wow. Wow.

Does anybody here get Fingerhut catalogs, or know what they are?

My grandmother use to get them decades ago, they were fun to look through but things were pretty pricey as I recall.   I wonder if it is due to their charging the official price for things instead of less like some stores do.
