Just after X-mas our 52" TV took a shit. So we had a 27" back-up just gatherng dust upstairs and we brought it down, temporarily, till we could recover from the holiday spend. Two days later that one took a shit too!

We bit the bullet and went TV shopping. I found a clearance set that just happened to match my criteria. I had just read Consumer Report and knew we wanted one of the top 2 televisions (ie: Sony and Panasonic, respectively). We stumbled on a clearance set in, of all places, Wal-Mart. It had been on sale and then marked down again for clearance. I LOVED the picture out of all the display models. So we tested it out. I asked if I got more money off for it being the display. Can't hurt to ask...right? The answer was yes, another 10%. I started doing my guzinta's and the savings was remarkable.

We now own a 42", Panasonic, plasma, HD, flat screen, wall mountable television. It is the first time I have ever been ahead of the times in my life!!!

$1,399.00 - original retail
$999.00 - sale price
$849.00 - clearance
$84.90 - extra 10% saved
$764.10 - FINAL COST before tax

No need for a converter anymore!

My luck is not usually that ^^^ good!
