There’s mid-size (40 to 50-inch) name brand TVs, great for the bedroom and a 60 and 70-inch ideal for the whole family viewing. We also include hot deals on soundbars and Blu-ray players.

Amazon plans to activate its big Black Friday deals starting this Monday Nov 19th at 12 am PST,  so keep checking the links and order as soon as you see the sale price appear, because at these prices, the supplies won’t last long.
