Just two weeks ahead of Super Bowl 50, the promotions for new big-screen TVs for watching the big game are hitting the media. Sunday’s entrant is Best Buy Co. Inc. (NYSE: BBY) and to say that the company needs to sell a ton of TVs as quickly as it can is not an overstatement.
The consumer electronics retailer said earlier in January that domestic sales revenues fell 0.8% in the holiday shopping season, with same-store sales down 1.4%. The company also noted that it anticipates a revenue decline of 4%, a decline in operating income, and an 1 to 3 cent decline in year-over-year adjusted diluted earnings per share. Best Buy has to do something, so big-screen TVs it is.

Delivery is free and the company’s Geek Squad setup and mounting services are also free. Earlier this past week Walmart advertised the same TV for $698 which the company said was discount of 20% from the usual price of $899.99.
