As you pointed out almost all the sales are online. I figure the few $$ I save will be lost on my unhappiness during the shopping. First and last time I participate in black Friday.

My mother really only needs a 720p set, I'm pretty sure comcast still isn't pushing 1080p content, and she sits pretty far away from the screen.

New Egg has a 32" Toshiba for $229.

Thanks for the link, looks like a good deal. I ended up buying one from amazon's lightning deals thing for $188 a couple hours ago, it's a no name brand but the reviews were great overall.

Picked up Xbox 360 Holiday Bundle (250GB, headset, Halo and Fable) for $220 including shipping and tax from the Microsoft online store. Cant believe people camped out for the same deal in retail stores.
