📺️ Score a Deal on a Huge TV Before Super Bowl Sunday
Super Bowl LVIII between the Chiefs and the 49ers is set for Sunday, Feb. 11.
Whether or not you watch the big game, it’s a great time to shop for a TV.
“Every year at this time there are always ridiculous deals on the discounted TVs they try to clear out to make room for the new TVs,” Clark says.
Clark recently noticed 85-inch TCL TVs on the Sam’s Club warehouse floor for $799. Some locations even give you a $100 gift card, reducing the number to $699.
Many people don’t have the space for an 85-inch TV – including Clark. But 75-inch TVs are on sale for as low as $499 according to Clark. He says you can find a great 75-inch, 4k TV at $649 or $699 “without even trying hard.”
For whatever reason, 65-inch TVs aren’t as good of a deal right now, he says.
As for what type of TV you should buy, Clark is only concerned about the size of the screen and the price.
“I will always accept lower quality for a lower price,” Clark says. “I mean, just look at how I dress.”
