new tv's.. a pain in the you know what!

So we got a hefty refund from our taxes this year and decided to splurge and by a big flat screen. I didnt know it was gonna be so much trouble, or I would have happily kept the old 32 inch analog tv we had.
Anyway after shopping around for what seemed like eternity my husband decides to go buy the tv without me.
He comes home with this46 inch sanyo...not that sanyo is the worse brand but its definitely not the best.
It was like $75 dollars cheaper was his answer to my question "why didnt you get a better tv with a better picture?).
SO now we have this ok to mediocre tv sitting against the wall in our living room because guess who didnt buy a stand...
How smart huh?
Well Ive been looking online at tv stands and I wasnt aware of how expensive they were. Some of these stands cost more than half of the tv! What are they charging you for? Alot of these stands are flimsy or made with very little material. especially the new style that allows you to "hang" your tv.
I finally found one that was suitable at Target. (Boy how I love that place) I just sent my husband to go get it. It'll be interesting to see what he comes home with. :-)
