TV shopping

Our trusty old TV has started to show it's age. Sometimes it keeps a worrying buzzing noise, it has started to fall apart externally as well and there are a few scratches on the screen as well. It's also a bit small by today's standards and the picture quality isn't up to date either. No wonder as it's already 10 years old. A quality product never the less, but even then they aren't build to last forever.

I've been looking for a new TV since we moved. Not least because the new living room is a bit bigger and the old TV looks so small at the back of it. While it has been working fine I haven't been in a hurry to replace it. Plenty of time to look for good deals and not overpay for one. Having had a plenty of time has also allowed me to evaluate different models and find one that best fits our needs.

Autumn is also a good time to pick up last years models on sale. Sure you could get a good deals on black Friday, but at that time of the year they are all current years models that hasn't come down on prices that much yet.

Today I noticed one of my preselected models on a good deal. Unfortunately it was not on the shop I also happen to have a gift card (from shopping kitchen appliances last year). Luckily they have pretty nice price matching policy so I decided to walk in to the store and ask for a quote. The deal I was referring was a bit too good (it was from one of the local online shops that import electronics directly from Asia. But due to that their warranty isn't that good). In the end I was able to negotiate a satisfying deal and our new 75 inch 4k miniled is now arriving on next Wednesday.
