Black Friday 2006 - What TV deals will we see?

[D22]

I am just curious what you guys think we will see this year. I am going to get something this year almost certainly. I am debating between being cheap and going with a 32", but I really want either a 1080P LCD or a 50" 720P Plasma.

So, what will be the best we will see this year on...

32" LCD?
50" HD plasma?
42" HD plasma?
37" 1080P lcd?
42" 1080P lcd?
46-50" 1080P lcd?

 

[Ika]

well, let's take a look at my crystal ball here...

Never partook in a black friday "sale". Might buy an LCD or two.

 

[XZeroII]

32" LCD? Free
50" HD plasma? Free
42" HD plasma? Free
37" 1080P lcd? Free
42" 1080P lcd? Free
46-50" 1080P lcd? Free

I may be wrong, but at least I'll win the prize for being the most optimistic.

Bah, that's nothing. I'm hoping for a free Humvee from the local Chevy dealer

Seriously, though... I'm giving up on the Staples Black Friday sales this year. I'm sick of waiting three months to get my money back from their so called "EZ" rebates.

I usually look forward to Black Friday for my computer upgrades, but I'm still satisfied with my X2 3800+ that I got last Black Friday. I can't think of what I need right now except maybe a Klipsch Promedia 5.1 set (doubt that'd be on sale for cheap during Black Friday) and a new video card (high end cards aren't on sale either). I'm hoping a cheap deal on a 20" LCD widescreen though to pair up with my 2005fpw.

 

[zainali]

hopefully a $500 plasma or something close to it.

i am waiting for 400/500gb hds. would like to get 3 for a pvr home theater setup.

 

[secretanchitman]

yuck...my bad for not reading.

maybe the 32-42" lcds...but nothing more.

 

[DrPizza]

It'd be nice if there was something I actually wanted for a change. There hasn't been for several years.

 

[JonTheBaller]

probably $300-$400 for a 50" 1080P LCD.

 

[HaxorNubcake]

isn't it a little early for black friday predictions?

 

[Tom]

I think there will be some $499 32 inch lcd deals.

Yes, but Gottadeal already opened their Black Friday forums a week ago. I'm not going to argue with RossMAN... If he says it's time, it's time

maybe a good deal on core 2 duo, hard drives, or even monitors.

Reading comprehension FTL.

I'd love to see the Westinghouse 42" 1080p LCD HDTV for $899 OTD @ BB.

Thats because we don't have a black friday sale. You're in CANADA, not the US of A.

Just wait for boxing day.

 

[sniperruff]

words on the street is that they'll have a 72-inch plasma FAR with 50x $200MIR's. in for one with fatcash!

 

[daveymark]

32" LCD - $399 to $499
50" HD plasma? $1.5 to $2k
42" HD plasma? $800 to $1200
37" 1080P lcd? $700 to $900
42" 1080P lcd? nope.
46-50" 1080P lcd? nope.

better deals will be on DLP/ Projection HD TV's.

I highly doubt that model will be at that price but we'll know soon when the BF ads are leaked and posted

Exactly. I loved the year I picked up a Dreamcast from Best Buy for $50.
