Squidco Last Copy 50% Sale

Every summer we look to make space on our shelves by closing out items that we have limited supply of and that we won't restock when sold out. This summer we found more than 200 CDs, LPs, Magazines, Books & Cassettes that we have just one copy of left in stock.

To help move those items along, this week we're reducing them by 50% off their retail price! What's more, we'll keep that discounted price until next Friday when any stock that remains will be reduced by 60%, after which their price will remain at that discounted price. Each item will disappear from the store after it's been sold, so if you see something you're interested in, you might not want to wait!**
