Puddy Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I didn't plan on shopping but did roll into Sears at 11:30 or so. Picked up a 46 inch Panasonic Plasma (only a 720p) for $499. The price ended at noon. Saved me a hundy over the price at 12:01: I watched them take the 'door buster' price down at noon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Neutron Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I finally picked up a Blu-ray player at Best Buy and got this Samsung for $139, normally $249. Has built in WiFi... Now I need to pick up a good wireless router. Anybody got any recommendations? Also in the market for a new PC. Probably looking for a desktop for typical home use (innernets, microsoft office (have the software already), picture and music storage, etc). Was thinking about doing his and hers laptops but may do that sometime down the road and start by replacing our 7 year old desktop. It will be nice to finally have a flat panel monitor. Paid $40 for a Netgear router and it's been flawless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingfootball Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 I got the best of both worlds. Got some good deals and my niece went out all night and did the shopping. She picked me up a WII Fit for $67 and some WII games for $7 (unknown what they are yet, but returnable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I did the midnight thing at Walmart and picked up Madden 2011 and Toy Story 3 games for the Wii for $29 each normally $49 and the Band Hero bundle for the Wii for $75 normally $179.

tazinib1 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Best TV deal out there It may only be a 37', but you'd be hard pressed to find a better deal for a 1080p HD television set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankf Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Shopped online, picked up a couple 32" t.v's off of Amazon, 1 for $198 and 1 for $249. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong but I don't think you need 1080P below a 42" TV as your eye can't process the difference...so in essence you are throwing away money to go to a 1080P on the smaller sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDTV Great post about RESOLUTION LINK With that in mind, that's why a set with a maximum 720 lines may be just as good as a set with a maximum of 1080 lines... Depending on it's size... Once the pixels get so small, it doesn't matter if the detail is lost anyway... Of course this varies based on your eyesight, and also the size of the screen vs your viewing distance. In fact, here's a really nice chart that demonstrates how resolution relates to viewing distance and tv size... YOU WILL HAVE TO CLICK THE LINK TO SEE THE CHART So as you can see, let's say your buying a 40" TV... The ONLY way you'll be able to tell the difference between a 1080 lines of resolution and 720 lines of resolution is if your sitting 5ft away or closer... If your buying a 50" TV, it's about 7 ft... 60" makes it about 7.5 to 8ft... So the honest truth is, in most peoples living rooms at normal viewing distances, you won't see the advantage of 1080 lines of resolution anyway. seriously, click the link it is an unbelievably informative post Edited November 29, 2010 by keggerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt770 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 HDTV Great post about RESOLUTION LINK YOU WILL HAVE TO CLICK THE LINK TO SEE THE CHART seriously, click the link it is an unbelievably informative post We have a 32" Samsung 720p in our bedroom and the picture is excellent. We watch from about 10 feet away. At closer distances I notice some pixelization but it is minor. Just bought another one for the guest bedroom, still a Samsung 32" 720p but the next model down from our bedroom one. The only major difference is the contrast ratio. It was $329 on Amazon, same price as BestBuy's Black Friday doorbuster price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cracks me up, and I just roll my eyes when the cashier tells me that "you have SAVED $75" on my $45 bill. Umm, yeah, right. Picked up a Dyson DC25 Animal vacuum cleaner for 200 bucks at Kohls.
