51, then 68. Spot on. 51's are just good for me to carry, 68's are big, heavy bastards.

I know we've got 51cm ones... i keep hearing them on the loudspeaker "customer's we've got a special for you today 51cm tv going at a low low price of 230 dollars, yes thats right customers 51cm tv going at a low low price of 230 dollars, box not included" lol
$230 for a 51cm tv?! That's way too much unless it's a decent brand... esp for one without a box... I assume it'd be display stock?

yeah its display stock

230 for a 51cm tv is cheappp (to me it is, flat screen 51cm tv.. i'de buy it!).. i think thats how much they were selling it... Nick wanna confirm this? I don't work on the floor, i work upstairs in an office by myself where my only friend is Kmart radio and whatever is said on the loud speaker :(

its not a decent brand, n e thing from kmart is like Magnavox, we do have sony n stuff but the cheap crap stuff

wow on replay?

lol

kmart..... blahhh


btw you CAN get 58cm tv's... 68 isn't the next step up.... I googled it (LOL yes i know im sad but procrastination is getting the better of me) But Nick's right, not sure whether they sell them at kmart though... kmart's pretty standard when it comes to SnV range

Check out Dick Smith next time you're looking for a TV. Typically they've got cheaper 51cm tvs than that... at the very least they've got flat screens for about that price, when they've just come out, and are brand new in their boxes. DSE branded, but since working there for 2 years, there're generally no problems with them; a few techies have come in and told me they're good TVs, nt just in not having problems, but in their construction. Admittedly the worst I've seen with them is when the couriers drop them. Not pretty.

Take a look:
51cm Flat Screen, $199
51cm Curved screen, $169

Yay tv's!

Kmart usually sells the 51cm Magnavox for around 199, it goes down further for the sales we have usually once every month.

tvs are pretty much 17cm > 34 cm > 51cm > 66 Pure Flat > 68cm

Recently we received a 72cm LCD and 80 (or 81) cm Plasma

$1699 and $2499 respectively. The LCD has better resolution though.

I think I win.

I have a sony TV, about 34cm which I got off eBay for $20! Perfect working order - I've had it over a year :D

And I cant believe Kmart music is played throughout the night... They could have an all-night disco!

Why don't you buy a Computer TV-TUNER for ~$100

That way you can browse BoS and watch your favourtire shows at the same time. And you can always record your favourite shows (although it is illegal) :p

\ . /
tv

instead of like this

tv

so... it doesn't really sound that loud when ur in the room... but since my bedroom is right next to the lounge ... it's MEGA loud... and it shits everyone in the house... the tv has been a cause of many fights...

we have that surround thingy which supposedly fixes it but i dunno how to use it :(

Why not just buy a projector. Your projection can be so big that you feel as if your standing right next to your favourite idol, but the quality is questionable.

:D

IDOL!! OMG EMILY HAS TO GET INTO THE TOP 2!! OTHERWISE I'LL DIE!

Australia needs to get rid of that "Lee" creature... however I do want to see him get to the Opera house so i can laugh when he sings the ballad against EMILY! Lmao... she'll butcher him alive!

But kate deserves to get into the top 2, she's good but not as good as emily!

As for it looking like im standing right next to EMILY!! :d:d:d lol
