[Tempo]

Hey. I am trying to grab the prices from the string below but I get a
few errors when I try to do it: Take a look at the code and error
messages below for me and thanks you in advanced to all that help.
Thank you. Here's the code & error messages:

>>> p
[<span class="sale">
					$14.99
				</span>, <span class="sale">
					$27.99
				</span>, <span class="sale">
					$66.99
				</span>, <span class="sale">
					$129.99
				</span>, <span class="sale">
					$254.99
				</span>]
>>> p.split()[2]
