Today’s Show:
Black Friday Roundup
On today’s show we will discuss the expected Black Friday deals we can all look forward to on the day after Thanksgiving. Last year the cheapest Blu Ray player was $128 and a 50 inch 720p plasma was going for $900. This year the cheapest Blu Ray player comes in at $78 and you can pick up a 50 inch 1080p plasma with a Blu Ray player for $1000. There are so many deals out there we can’t talk about all of them. We selected a few we thought were mentioning so that you can plan out your Black Friday strategy. In addition to what we talk about here Apple Computer usually has some good deals in store and on the web. Amazon does as well and if you use our link you help out the show (HT Guys Amazon Link).
