One of the hotel chains around here plans to replace all its CRTs with LCDs, but can’t get all a similar size in quantity, or so I’ve heard. Probably due to Christmas ordering by retailers.

More Black Friday Predictions!
By Swanni
Washington, D.C. (September 15, 2011) — Earlier this week, I made six predictions on what prices you can expect on HDTVs and related products during the 2011 Black Friday shopping rush.

However, there are other sites that follow the shopping phenomenon closely and they have also made some predictions for the big event which takes place November 25, the day after Thanksgiving.

But before I tell you about them, a little background: Retailers traditionally offer deep discounts on the day after Thanksgiving, better known as Black Friday, the unofficial start of the holiday shopping season.

The discount prices are often available for one day only — and may include restrictions on time and supply. Discount hunters also have to contend with the frenzied atmosphere of Black Friday which some shoppers view as a day of combat.

So here is what some Black Friday-oriented sites are predicting for the 2011 Black Friday rush:

DealsBlackFriday2011.net
“In 2011 the best possible deal will be for a 32-Inch Full HD LED TV with a price as low as a couple of hundreds of dollars. Also 2011 might be the year in which HD ready TVs will be eliminated from the Walmart Ads list.”

TheBlackFriday.com
42-inch LCD HDTV for $349
47-inch LCD HDTV for $499
55-inch LCD HDTV for $799
LED 37-inch 1080p LCD HDTV $499
LED 47-inch 1080p LCD HDTV $749
LED 55-inch 1080p LCD HDTV for $1299.99

BlackFriday.info
“Amazon is giving shoppers a headstart on Black Friday shopping. The Amazon Black Friday sale starts on Monday, November 21st, 2011. While Amazon hasn’t released info on which Black Friday deals they’ll be offering, we know from previous years that Amazon doesn’t disappoint. They offer great Black Friday deals and match Walmart’s low prices on lots of items. We especially liked their Gold Box sales in 2010, with new deals every day on items such as GPS, digital cameras and toys.”

ThanksgivingBlackFridayAds.com
“The low-end 32 inch full HDTV is sale on Amazon.com for $300. Experts expect that the 32 inch HDTV with 1080p resolution to be offered for $198 (on Black Friday). Both Target and Wal-Mart are expected to offer some incredible deals as well as some of the online stores. Consumers should await the Black Friday advertisements to find the best deals.

“Last year, during the Black Friday sale, the 32 inch Emerson HDTV was sold for $198 from Wal-Mart. Experts expect that Amazon, Wal-Mart and Best Buy will try to do something more to beat this price.”
