2. My living room is tiny. It is the biggest that will fit between the windows and still allow room for the curtains.
3. Oh yeah, it is the biggest we can afford. Big Ballers we are not.

This will be the first TV I have purchased in 14-15 years too. So the improvement will be welcomed. I just need to find out if Sears does price matching.

woke up at 3am today, went to pick up the gf and headed to best buy. the line was insane! managed to get two HT set, tv stand, two yamaha keyboards (for my bro...he's taking piano classes as an elective and another for my 7 yr old cousin), and a blueray player. i wanted to get this hp laptop that was $499 but they all sold out within 30 minutes.

*rant* so we got all this sh*t on this cart...heading towards checkout. they had the area sectioned off and snaked around a bunch of isles. this b*tch wouldn't let me just cut to the registers. there were NOBODY in front of me. so i had to push that f*cking cart up and down the isles weaving in and out...then she was like "ok sir move on to the registers." WTF?? I *****ed her out saying whats the point of me doing all of that when there was nobody in front of me. That damn cart was heavy with all that sh*t on it! The manager heard my *****ing and came over to see what was the problem. He said he's sorry and gave me 50 dollars store credit . *end rant*

Oh and it seems that Sears isn't offering price matching for the weekend, so I didn't buy it. I will, but I have a feeling as the Black Friday wasn't super profitable, the prices will either stay the same or drop ove the next couple of weeks. I hope so anyway. If not I may be waiting till the end of January to pick one up. I didn't want to wait, but the wife did, as was the suggestion from my Aunt and Uncle. So I caved. Oh well.

Absolutely right, but I dont charge you sales tax and my price would be less anyway ... Just tax alone would be what .. 70-80-100 bucks?

Just get a new card with low/no interest.

Most of it is acquired via trades or super cheap so it's not that it's hurting my wallet, more of it's hurting my space in the basement.
