Best Buy® & Geek Squad® Gear Up for the Big Game with Great Deals on the Ultimate Home Theater Set-Up

MINNEAPOLIS, January 20, 2010 – With less than three weeks until the Big Game, Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) makes it easier than ever to bring the action to your home television screen. As a preferred destination for football fans, Best Buy carries the most robust and largest selection of televisions of any retailer in the country, backed by the in-home support of national, wholly-owned tech support task force Geek Squad.

“For decades, Best Buy has delivered a superior viewing experience for sports fans looking to enjoy game day from the comfort of their living rooms,” says Josh Will, vice president of Home Theater, Best Buy. “We offer in-home consultation, superior product selection and installation services, as well as some of the best values in the industry to give our customers a home theater experience that fits their individual needs.”

From now through February 6, 2010, Best Buy offers great values on the latest Samsung LED TVs, which promise lower power consumption and more balanced color saturation than other technologies. The Samsung 46-inch 1080p LED TV (Model: UN46B6000VF) is available at Best Buy now for $1,599.99 -- a savings of $900.00. And this week only, customers looking for a complete home theater make-over can purchase that Samsung 46-inch 1080p LED TV, along with a Samsung soundbar and WiFi Bluray player, Rocketfish HDMI cable, and Geek Squad installation for only $1,999.99 -- a savings of more than $1,400.00. Both offers, as well as any TV over $999.00, are eligible for three-year financing, free delivery and free recycling.

For game day and every other day of the year, Best Buy’s Geek Squad helps customers combat the challenges to achieving the ultimate viewing experience on products purchased at Best Buy and anywhere else. The 20,000-member tech support task force provides customers a broad range of home theater services. From in-home consultation ($99.99) and television and video set-up (starting at $99.99), to wireless networking (starting at $149.99) and remote control programming ($149.99), Geek Squad offers customers the peace of mind that they are getting the most from their gear. As always, haul-away and recycling of one television is free with a new TV purchase.
