Six ways to save beaucoup bucks on electronics

Whether it’s Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or Stupid Bloody Tuesday, you can find great deals on gadgets and gear this season — if you know where to look.
The economy may be going to hell in a shopping basket, but you wouldn’t know it from the crowds I saw at my local Big Box store today. The parking lot was a snarl and lines were out the door, even in my relatively sleepy southern town.
The deals were pretty good too. I’m in the hunt for a medium-sized flat panel TV so the kids can play the Wii in the family room while my wife and I watch movies on our front room projector. The best deal I saw was a 40-inch Sony Bravia LCD TV at Best Buy for under $900, or $200 off list. That was tempting.
But you don’t have to brave the lines or search blindly for the best prices. There are great deals aplenty if you know where to look online.
