Last year BF's were a Frigidaire pair for $999 (reg. price $1299) They actually are clearancing the same models right now : Washer - ATFB6000ES - $569.99 Dryer - AEQB6000ES - $474.99 So about the same price now that last year Black Friday's price.
Could it be the TV itself is the one haunted?. Maybe you have a defective TV. Better keep checking it. Take the batteries out from the remote and see if the TV keeps behaving.
Are you giving away your account too?. My understanding is that you have to make the purchase using the same account you used for getting the code. If not, the code is worthless.
