I know a tv is important to him, but it's a lot of money to me; plus all the clutter and stuff that comes with it. @ Miss M- I love Ikea! We thought we would only buy real wood furniture since we got our house but I realized how expensive it is! I'm trying to thrift things and refinish them myself! @ devil- I will just wait and see how things pan out.

Men and their toys, they are never satisfied. Too bad you'll also have to buy a TV stand, we have one of those small sit on top kind that can hold almost any size. Good old Ikea, I swore I'd stop buying furniture from there once I got out of college, it still hasn't happened.

I went ahead and bought the huge, fancy TV just to shut The Husband up. We used 0% financing for a year (paid off in 9 months, just to be safe) and he had to BUILD the furniture for it (looks great - custom job). We didn't go Blu Ray because I just plain dug in my heels at that nonsense. 'Course I may cave in down the road. TVs are really, really important to most men so you may want to get your financial ducks lined up for this purchase. Eventually, he'll probably wear you down. Good luck to you on this one…really.
