Get Your Inaugural Piggy Banks Here, Kids!
As millions of Barack-o-philes prepare to descend upon the nation's capital, the Presidential Inaugural Committee has opened a memorabilia store in downtown Washington, D.C.
Obama devotees who want a tangible reminder of the historic inauguration can purchase standard souvenir fare such as t-shirts, caps and coffee mugs. But there are also a few less conventional items for sale.
Livestrong wristbands were so 2004. For the low price of $4, you can purchase this blue Barack Obama wristband and wear it proudly to "remember the historic day of 01.20.09 every day."
