Buying a TV at BestBuy.. what card will give the most return?

I am Buying a TV at BestBuy.. what card will give the most return?

 

The tv will cost approximately $4000.  I want to make sure I get the best return on it.

 

I thought my 1080p was cool but when I went to visit bestbuy those 4k resolution tv's are looking much sharper.  Need to get rid of this 1080p crap in my living room.

Can you buy it online (after checking it out at the store?)  Discover Deals gives 5% rebate on BestBuy purchases, and lots of other portals

give 1%+ in addition to what your credit card gives you.

4k TV is a waste imo as most channels on cable are only upscaled to 1080p atm..  Really Blu-Rays are the only way to watch 4k.  It still has years to go before the bandwidth and cable companies in my opinion will support it..  With that said I would keep your current 1080p tv or get a newer one that you want,but don't waste 4k on a 4k tv.. What you were watching at bestbuy was one on a select movies that support it..  Yes it is coming, but why not wait until the price drops when it actually makes it to main stream.

 

Now if you are set on it, I probably would use an Amex or something for an extra year of warranty.

 

My 2 cents.. Off to bed

at the $4k pricepoint the BB card is the one id use. If i was in the $1k-1500 range, a new card that that rocks 0% for a year, the 100 bucks in points back after $500, along with a shopping portal and movers coupon is the way to handle that.

True.  And they already have a new one out.  We wanted to jump on it also.  But decided to wait for that reason.  And that would mean new receiver.  I do understand.  Everytime I see one, I am in awe.  Smiley Wink
