Black Friday has Become One of the Best Times of the Year to Buy TVs

WARREN, Mich., Nov. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- It's no secret Black Friday is one of the best days of the year to buy a new TV so the experts in Big Screen TV's, Paul's TV inside Art Van Furniture, have put together five  helpful tips for  holiday shoppers.

1. Alphabet soup: LED, LCD, or Plasma TV? LED's have richer color and are more energy efficient. LCD's are less expensive and have a matte finish and will display better in brighter rooms. Plasma's have the richest color palette of all and the best viewing angles.
2. Numbers: 1080p is the term used mostly when identifying resolution. 1080p is currently the most desirable resolution. The higher the resolution the better the overall picture quality.
3. Cords: HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the best cable you can purchase. It carries audio as well as video, and will give the best picture and sound from one cord. 
4. Installation: If you are considering installing your HDTV professional installation is highly recommended. Not only for safety purposes but what does one do with all of the exposed wires? Professional installation guarantees a worry free experience.
5. Save the Box: Hang on to the box and the Styrofoam that your HDTV came in. This will come in quite handy if moving, or if something goes wrong and the unit needs to be shipped back to the manufacturer.

"So often people buy televisions without knowing what features they're getting," says James Garelli, Paul's TV Director of Stores. "We want to give the best TVs at the best prices, but we also want guests to know everything a new television has to offer."

Black Friday deals at Paul's TV will present the lowest prices in the industry, such as a 73" HDTV for $999 or a 50" HDTV for $799.  Paul's TV will also provide its customers with a 30-day price protection.

Paul's TV inside Art Van Furniture will open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Black Friday, November 25, 2011.  A free Android tablet will be given with every purchase over $688 in every department inside Art Van.
