We here at Big Picture Big Sound just love the holiday season. After all, nothing says holiday togetherness like gathering around the glow of a nice, new HDTV. If you've been looking for a new TV to share with the family, Amazon has the ultimate family package for sale right now.
For a limited time, the retailer has LG's 55-inch 55LW6500 1080p 3D LED on sale for just $1485 shipped. The list price on this model is $2699.99, which makes it a good deal -- but there's a few things about this offer that the entire family can appreciate. This model comes packaged with four pairs of 3D glasses, so everyone can enjoy a little in-your-face entertainment. If that's not enough, Amazon is throwing in a free Xbox 360 and the Halo: CE Anniversary Bundle with the purchase of this 3D TV!
Technically, Amazon is offering a $240 credit when you buy an LG Cinema 3D HDTV, the 4GB Xbox 360, and the Halo: CE Anniversary Bundle. In other words, they are freebies. Find out more about this offer on Amazon:
To redeem that Amazon credit, you will have to buy one of five different LG 3D TVs. We love the 55-inch 55LW6500. This is one of LG's Cinema 3D TVs, which means it uses passive 3D technology. That boasts a flicker-free experience from wider viewing angles. Even better, it uses glasses that are similar to the ones you get at the movie theater, which are less expensive and a lot lighter on your face!
Other features on this model include a 2D-to-3D conversion feature, LED Plus backlight technology with local dimming, TruMotion 240Hz, four HDMI inputs, and two USB ports. Another nice perk is that this HDTV has LG's own Smart TV platform, built right into the TV's interface. This puts access to services like as Netflix, Hulu Plus, VUDU, MLB.TV, Facebook, and more, right into your hand -- or at least into the Magic Motion remote, which also comes with this particular model.

Now, it's important to note that you don't have to get the 4GB Xbox 360. This deal will give you $240 credit when you buy one of the eligible LG 3D TVs, the Xbox 360, and Halo: CE Anniversary Bundle. In other words, if you want a larger hard drive, more games, and/or Kinect, that's an option as well -- it will just be insanely cheap with that $240 discount! Check out all of the available 3D TV models, as well as the eligible Xbox packages at Amazon:
Any of these combinations would be perfect for a movie marathon or a gaming grudge match, on Christmas Day or in the middle of the summer. Just make sure to place an eligible 3D TV, as well as the Xbox package and the Halo: CE Anniversary Bundle into your shopping cart. You must buy all three directly from Amazon (and not one of its third-party merchants). The savings will be reflected in your shopping cart during the checkout process. Better start shopping; this offer is only good through November 19, 2011, or whenever the retailer runs out of stock!
