  1. We just did this last night. Went in to get a new Epson printer that was priced at $279.99, got to the counter and asked for the price match and showed the clerk the online price at B&H for the same printer with free shipping for $179.00. The only slight issue was that it took 4-5 minutes for a manager to arrive to approve the new price but other than that it was easy and pain free. Saved $100.99 for 5 minutes time, I prefer to buy in store and if they continue this policy then I will start buying from BB again.

    Last time I check a printer was technically a "computer accessory" which should be excluded. Guess I should see if they'll price match on a pair of monitors.

  2. Went to WM @ 1AM...way too early should have been there at 4AM. Picked up a PS3 with some movies and everything was good in the mass hysteria until after getting out of the store (by 5 after 5am) and looking over the receipt found they charged me 3x for the same BD movie. So went back in and it took another 35minutes to get the price corrected. Overall lines weren't too bad, worst problem people were running into because WM was finally doing price matching there were a lot of problems with cashiers messing up the transactions and in the older WM there was no place for customers to see the list of items being purchased as they rung up before getting the receipt.

     

    Outside of WM ordered some stuff from Amazon, Radio Shack, and Best Buy on turkey day.....very smooth and considering the big ticket item was available on WM online later in the morning this is the last year I go to the stores. From now all everything online and I'll pass on the lines.

  3. The 12 days of Christmas have started at CompUSA again.

    Picked up a couple from the local CompUSA they had about 50 drives at the end of the isle with no marking what so ever in the store.

  4. The DVD player is a reciever as well. You will only get HD sound from the DVD's and not external inputs like the TV. The HDMI just carries a optical line for digital sound and video for picture. It doesn't need to be inputted in to a DVD player, an optical input would be all you need to get HD sound from your TV. I don't believe this system has an optical input, therefore you will only get stereo sound from your TV and HD sound from DVD's.

     

    Checked over the manual again and the HDMI is required if you want to do 720p/1080i upconverting and it does not have an optical input.

  5. Um, the 1000W Panasonic has 1 HDMI out port......the HDMI output is only needed to output to the TV...the system itself supports surround sound. As for an alternative surround input you would be looking at using the optical port.
