This reminds me of those Doc Swole stories... only much, much gayer.

Not bad. It is Clearance time for electronics with E3 on 6/12 though.

Just got Mom a new 4k 49" Samsung for $400 tax and all on clearance last week online. The old 3D started having a problem with the processor auto swapping between 3D/2D and the auto light correction making it look like a dark fog movie set image. Not like she needed 3D anyway, she watches news, that's it, period. Her TV viewing consists of 3-4 channels total.

You can go to Nathan Fielder’s client’s shop that was selling some tv’s on the cheap instead.

I will warn you, it does involve tiny doors and maybe reptilian encounters:

So we get to the TV section and I see a 43” Insignia 1080p HD for $280

He then immediately caved and said I could buy it for just $23/month over 12 months if that helped


Assuming 0% interest you saved him $4. You are a real tough negotiator.

I don't say this lightly: I would rather read a DavidTheGnome thread.

So you got a display model that has germs from every pos that touched it, complete with scratches for $276 instead of $280. You need to read “Art of the deal “.

Best Buy price matches. Just find some random website on the internet that is selling it for a ridiculously low price and they'll match.


They don't match every random website on the internet, but they'll match Amazon, Newegg, Walmart, Target, and a few others.
