Have I Got a Deal for You is the ninth studio album by American country music artist Reba McEntire, released June 10, 1985. A continuation of the same style of music that made her previous album My Kind of Country a big seller. Unlike its predecessor, which had two #1 Billboard country hits, the highest-charting singles were the #6 title song "Have I Got a Deal for You" and the #5 "Only in My Mind”, her first and only self-written single to date.
