Default Anyone find a crazy good electronics deal?

I've been looking for a new TV for the office and am waiting for the right deal on a Sammy LCD to come along so I'm all over the major electronics sites and just haven't found a lot of the typical "Monday after Thanksgiving" sales.

Anybody buy something over the weekend and get a great deal? Where/what/howmuch?

I've looked through TigerDirect/Frys/NewEgg/TechForLess/Ecost/BB/ and some others including Amazon searches for various things and it's a little disappointing.

I bought a samsung 58" plasma @ bb sunday before yesterday for $1200. Plasmas don't burn in nearly as bad as they used to, have better blacks and are cheap as **** these days.... most ppl overlook them because of the lcd/led marketing thats taken over.

This.

The newer plasmas have a great picture and you get a LOT for your money.

The new TV for the office will be down in the 26-32" range so plasma is out. I know what I want, just waiting for the price to come down or some to show up refurbished.

But what about deals in general... anybody researching anything. I'm always interested in keeping up with what things cost. My buddies always call me for advice on things and now is the season.

I bought a 50" LG plasma for $599 no tax and free shipping from Amazon a few weeks ago. It's only 720p, but it is VERY slim (1-2") and still has an awsome picture (I dont have a ps3 or blu ray anyways). I think I got a steal...I remember when I bought my 32" westinghouse a few years ago....it was pretty much the same price lol

Picked up a 32 GB OCZ SSD for $40 from TigerDirect. It'll make a good boot drive for the MPC in the living room.
