What I mean buy this is, When you go to places like Bestbuy or something.  Do you try to talk them in to deals to make it worth your purchase.
  I have kind of a funny story as I am one that never stops untill I get my way.
 
 
I went to this Bestbuy store (here in minnesota) in northtown mall.  I am looking at the 52" sharp Aquos.  I say to the guy (mind you before reading the rest of this, I got my friend to get a "Sharp" and got him a deal on a free intertainment center with 4 2 HDMI's and 2 optical.)So what kind of deal can I get for this.  If I get this 52" HDTV I would like a free entertainment stand which is only $89.99.  The guy was like nope and I told him well I am also wanting those Klipsch speakers. The guy was like nope but he added everything up and started taking 25% of the cords and entertainment stand.  I kept on trying to get this deal and called over the manager and told him "I got my friend this deal and I want the same deal, granted I am paying 3x more then he is".  I kept on going on and after 1 hour of trying to get this deal they kicked me out of the storeAngry.
 
  Now I go to the Bestbuy in Roseville (to make it shorter)I did the same thing.  The guy's gave me 2 free HDMI's, 2 free Opticals, and a free entertainment stand/thing, the entertainment stand costed $189.99, plus I got a free coke Big%20smile.  on top of that I also got the HDTV for $2,600.  That is $200 off the sale price and it was on SALE!!!.   I went with DirectTV cause I like DTV better then Comcast cable TV and got another $399.99 off the reciever for the speakers, got the reciever for free then.  free delivery also.  Remember Bestbuy also has a Pricematching thing which means if you can find the TV at any other store for less they give you the TV for that price (refund you some of you cash back) they give you 30 days to price match them.
 
I think I got one hell of a deal, plus a free soda.LOL

I do most of my electronic shoppings online since the price is more accurate, cheaper, and there are no taxes! =)

But I always complain to my ISP and get free months of internet =)
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.
