LG's LCD and Home Theater System

Yesterday, i was absent from work. Hubby and I went to Abenson to buy new LCD tv for our room. We stayed there for almost an hour to check among the 3 brands of which is good. The brands are Samsung, Sharp and LG. Among the three, Hubby and I have the same choice which is LG.

Why?

With picture contrast, LG has the highest contrast ratio of 60,000:1 unlike with the Samsung and Sharp with less than 30,000:1. Also, the panel board of LG is hard which is one of the important factor in buying an LCD.

With the prices, they are all discounted: LG is now at P27,900, Samsung is 25,900 while Sharp is P22,900. With the freebies, Samsung LCD comes with a Samsung DVD, Sharp comes with a dvd and speakers while LG doesnt have any free :(

Still, we choose the new LG LCD because the Specs are really good, the manager also offered us something...

Our new LG32LH20R

The LG manager offered us the LG HT554TM model Home theather system. The original price of this home theater system is P20,000++, Since we bought the new model of the LG lcd tv, he offered us a huge discount if we bought the home theater system in cash or straight payment using credit card. 

The Home Theather system

All in all, the package price that we got for this two (LCD and Home theater system) is more than P39k plus P250.00 delivery to our house.

Do you think we got the good deal? Hubby is excited to try it. But were still waiting until tomorrow because Abenson staff will be the one to work or set-up the lcd because we want it to be wall-mounted.

Samsung's 29" LCD

When i was in Dumaguete, hubby and tami supposed to be attending my cousin's 7th birthday in Kids Universe in MOA but tami got fever that time so they wasn't able to go. Instead, hubby is busy scouting for a new LCD tv at SM.

When we went to MOA, he took me to SM appliance center for the LCD tv. He is salivating over Samsung's LCD haha. Its a good buy and for sure its energy efficient compared of what we have right now.
He keeps on bugging me to buy that Samsung LCD, it has the sale price of P27,000+++. He even asked the salesman if its available for installment using credit card.

When we arrived at home, he told Papa about his plan of buying another tv. He wants to replace our tv to a new and bigger one. He wants it to be wall-mounted to add some space to our room because i told him I want to buy a study table and computer table in one like what i saw in SM Center few weeks ago. Come June, our daughter will be going to school and i want to have a study table for us.

As for the Samsung tv, i am having second thoughts about it because it is not practical to buy a new one. Were not that rich to buy all what we want and i don't want to get that amount from our savings either. I just told hubby that after enrolling tami, we will see if we can shell that amount from my salary to have a new tv.

If you may ask why that amount will be from my salary, its because all our everyday expenses like sa expenses sa house (wala ng libre ngaun..hehe.. we give P6,000 monthly to my in-laws for the utilities expenses), tami's milk and diaper, our allowance till next cut-off, groceries for the house and some other things, we get all that to hubby's salary. From my salary naman, we make sure that half of it will go to our savings and the remaining half is for our luho or extra expenses like travel, dining-out in restaurants, clothes, etc...I make it a point to budget all our expenses because i want to save more for our future (i want to retire early!) and at the same time enjoy what we have now and what we can do while we were young :)

Let's just wait for the Samsung tv...*cross-finger*
