Best Buy and Walmart are for suckers
All discounted stores local to your city like Best Buy, Walmart, Target etc. are for suckers, unless you work for them and get a good employee discount.
Let’s see if you want to buy $1500 HDTV, you pay sales tax; for me in Miami it’s 7% which is $105. Also you need to rent a car (unless you have big one) or ask for friends help to carry these HDTV at home. Last but not least haggling with sales person who would try to sell you expensive insurance and standing in the line carrying this big HDTV.
Now for the same thing you can order online and get free shipping, most probably less price, no sales tax, no standing in the line and no haggle with sales persons about insurance.
So the best way is you first do research on amazon.com. See the reviews and short list few items. Next thing you can do is to go to these stores and see how actually they performs (I don’t do that I have enough respect for amazon.com reviewers).
Now you look online where you can cheap online with free shipping from reputable online stores and pull the trigger.
Now for insurance you pay with Visa or American Express. I don’t know about Master Card and Discover. They will extend one year warranty for free. Visa also offers very cheap multiyear warranty. I used it and let me tell you they are fantastic. I usually register with Visa Warranty immediately that way I don’t have to hang on to receipts and warranty information and you are all set. In case you product break call them and you are all set.
I do buy sometimes from discounted stores when they really have very good deal.
Some of my favorite online stores where I don’t pay any tax and good deal:
With amazon.com I have prime membership which you can share with you family members. We share with 5 people and it comes out $16 each. You can share with friends too but that’s up to you; all you need is birth month and day from them.
