A few years ago, the idea of having a 60-inch flat panel HDTV seemed lavish and out of most people's price range. Forget about it actually being a respected name brand like a Sharp AQUOS. Well, we're talking about Black Friday 2011, people. The economy stinks and manufacturers and retailers want your holiday shopping dollars: Nothing is off limits!
Best Buy just announced plans for a three-day Black Friday Sale that starts today (Thursday 11/24), and we found that the retailer is sellingĀ Sharp's 60-inch LC60E79U AQUOS 1080p LCD HDTV for just $799.99. This set typically sells for $1099, making it a very nice deal. Even better, you don't have to camp outside of the store and fight other shoppers to score this discount. Check it out here:
UPDATE: The TV is now out of stock online but check out HDTV and Home Theater Deals for more deals.
This 60-incher is part of Sharp's coveted AQUOS brand, which means you can have some serious bragging rights -- but at a discount, of course. This set has a full 1080p HD image, as well as 120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced technology, Active Contrast and Active Color features. Also, the Optical Picture Control (OPC) option will automatically adjust the picture's brightness to suit room lighting, for the best viewing experience possible.
If you want to add other AV devices into your mix, this set also has four HDMI inputs and two HD capable component video inputs. Of course, you will want to do that. How could you let this big boy stand alone?
It's important to note that Best Buy is offering free standard shipping on all orders from now through December 27, 2011. That means if you order this set now, they will ship it to your home, in time for Christmas (or before!), absolutely free.
We're guessing that keeping this set in stock won't be an easy task now that the sale is live. So if it's what you're looking for, add it to your cart, check out online, sit back and relax in your pajamas while everyone else braves the brick and mortar retail madness on Black Friday.
