National Geographic Warehouse Sale
I suspect at least a few readers would be interested in dropping by this:
National Geographic is selling truckloads and truckloads of books, maps, globes, toys, puzzles, travel accessories, clothing, luggage, gifts National Geographic magazine coversand more to its Holiday Warehouse Sale at the Washington DC Armory.
Expect discounts of at least 25% on just about everything that National Geographic sells, with some books and other products discounted up to 90%.
It’s happening today, tomorrow, and Sunday. More details at the linked DC Traveler site (which is worth a look around, itself).

Aw, man, this would have been right up the kid’s alley, especially the globes and maps part. Well, at least it gives me a good idea for Christmas gifts for him–I’d completely forgotten about their online store which has a neat little kids section, as I recall.

Just back from this. Lots of good stuff (also no shortage of holiday gift possibilities). Travel guides for all major destinations. Lots of photo books (of course). According to the people working the checkout counter, they’ve not really sold out of anything, so you’re not left with the picked-over dregs. Most books & atlases are going for between $7-10. Open till 5pm. Easy parking/metro there.
