Ha!
It took a long time for them to get down to $29.95. The only TV I have ever bought new was a 12" Midland, from Western Auto back in the mid 80s. It was on sale for $79.95. I had $80 saved up-my Dad paid the sales tax. It replaced a late 60s GE 23v table model

A couple years later I spent another $80 and got an old Portacolor, which was really high-living for me.
When these sets got down to $59.95 I couldn't believe it. Then they broke $50, and down-down-down.
