With the money we have come into, we replaced or somewhat finicky 42" LCD TV. The HDMI 1 plug is a little wonky, sometimes you have to pull it, unplug the TV, plug in the TV then plug in the HDMI. While we all enjoy our TVs, I do not particularly care for hugging them to get them to work.
The TV still works fine, HDMI 2&3 function beautifully, and so do the other inputs. HDMI 1 works, but as I said, sometimes it gets angry. There are some fingerprints and smudges on the screen from little fingers. It does do 1080p, but was purchased before 3D was a thing.
If anyone knows anyone that needs a TV because they cannot afford a new one, please E-mail or pm me. I have the remote and manual around here somewhere too.

I just checked out the website, as I also have a TV that need to get rid of. In the "Pass it On" Section, it says they do not take TV's way down at the bottom. However this still looks like a great place to get rid of other things that my kids have outgrown that are still in good shape - clothes, shoes, toys, books, etc. So thanks.
If you cannot find a place to get rid of your TV, a lot of Best Buy's will do TV recycle. You pay $10 and then get a $10 gift card back from them to use on whatever. I have done it several times. The one in Roseville, MN, does this. I'm going to see if it also includes other types of electronic recyles as well.

We would LOVE your TV if it is still available.
We're still watching an old box machine.

I wondered about the TVs for FHEO and I understand they don't want people's junk but I thought I'd pass it along just in case since I didn't see that section ahead of time. What I love about that charity is that they GIVE things to people in need as opposed to charging them for it like Goodwill does. I have taken my old TVs to Best Buy and paid their $10 fee. In return and on the spot they gave me a $10 Best Buy gift card that I used for Christmas. |

TV is still here. Unfortunately, I don't have a big enough vehicle to take it somewhere. Best place for it is buckled into an empty back seat. So it goes to anyone who wants to come get it. I live in Chaska.
