Maybe you'd be interested in a traditional New England farmhouse for, say, $1. The price might sound like a scam, but it's not, although strings the size of tow ropes are often attached.

Among state-of-the-art displays at the National Retail Federation's annual conference here this week: an interactive mirror for use outside fitting rooms that will stream high-definition video of shoppers modeling clothes to their friends' computers or mobile devices.

Before Britney Spears married soon-to-be-ex Kevin Federline, she had her lawyers draw up a prenuptial agreement that reportedly awards him only $300,000 of her estimated $100 million in assets.
