$20 hats? Would you elaborate more on that?

    Several "gimmick" catalogs sell a canvas "bucket" hat with a small LCD
    display on the front. You can program several messages to scroll across the
    display.

    My wife is digging though the trash right now to find the catalog I saw it
    in...
