Chances are that either you or your significant other wants to buy a flat panel plasma television. I would venture to say that the other one of you is against the idea, probably based on cost alone. So somebody needs some convincing, and that's why we're here to help.
We could of course bore you with the details of the incredible picture. We could tell you about how atomic particles are controlled to produce an incredible intensity and spectrum of colors. We could even mention that since you spend a lot of time watching television, it just makes sense to watch the best picture available. The problem is that even if you're against the idea, you understand how much better the picture is. You're against it for more practical reasons. So we'll appeal to your more practical side.
Did you ever consider the money saving benefits of buying a plasma television? That's right. Think about this. With the beautiful big screen picture you'll go to a lot less movies. Why bother? Pop in a High Definition or Blue Ray disk and you'll never look at movies the same way again. Now consider the cost of taking a family of 4 to the movies. I bet you pay at least dollars a person (probably more) after you visit the concession stand. If you go to two movies a year that's almost 00. Your plasma TV may pay for itself in a few years. Pop your own popcorn, pour a glass of your favorite cola and you're all set to watch it on your schedule, not the theater's. And that's not to mention the high price of gas to get to the theater and back.
The same principle applies for watching the big game. Do you go to a bar or restaurant to view it on a big screen? How much do you spend on food and drinks while you're there? You'll save hundreds here as well, and still get the big screen experience.
Now about that big screen. Most people don't have room for a giant cathode ray tube or rear projection television in their home. And even if you do, we all know they're pretty ugly. That's why thousands are spent on television cabinets every year. A lot of families try to hide the television, and for good reason. But you won't have to hide your plasma TV. And it won't take up any floor space either. Hang it on the wall and you'll have plenty of room for seating and furniture. You can get rid of the bulky entertainment center that houses your tiny 24 inch screen. And you'll need the extra space too because once you bring home your new television, you'll find you have a lot more friends than you thought you did.
After all, they'll also love the brilliant picture they see on your new 52 inch flat panel plasma television.
