So I brought the wife to Sears to have her check out the 58" Panny (the one that Steve just bought) for $1099. Well, they dont have any I guess.

After reading reviews, I found that the TV that I really want is the Panasonic 50VT20 (same at the 25, but the 20 is Best Buy's "model")

They are generally $2500 - about $1500 more than I was looking to spend. Well, they are on sale, come with a free BDP, Avatar, and 2 pairs of glasses (in addition to the pair the TV comes with, making 3 pairs)

Free delivery, interest free for 3 years. All for $2000 and some odd change after uncle sam claims his share of my TV.

Not a bad haul. The only stipulation was that I had to buy the wife some $300 ring she saw at Costco. Didn't think too hard about that one.

They were out of stock :mad: so I had to order, and it will be here Tuesday. In another month, I'll have my new SC-37 and I'm set for quite some time.

    Was just looking online, and noticed that I should have gotten a little crappy 15" Coby plasma too. Called them on it, and it'll be there waiting for me. Not that I need a 15" too, but hey. Free is free, right?

    No kidding! I've had my old system for 4-5 years now. I saw the weekly Polk sale on Newegg, did some research, and joined this gawd awful forum.

    I haven't made it 2 weeks without spending at least $500 to replace everything I own. lol Damn Y'all! :wink:
