I am in need of a new tv and I know Sony are running a cashback promotion up until 24th December. £100 for the £499 tv I am after, so sounds pretty good.

Do you think now is a good time to buy, or there will be even better offers in the new year? confused

I suspect the prices will drop to the including cashback price next year. There's always bargains to be had, and always dissapointment when you see the price drop 6 months later.

With that in mind, there is no reason not to go for it. I really want a Sony camera which they have cashback on now, but wont have the money saved until after Christmas, but I expect (well hope) the price to drop by April.

Do some extra online homework on like for like prices available and go and do some bargaining.

I have been sitting on the fence for a while about 55 inch upgrades - OK we are looking at 5 times the price.

Panasonic were giving an extra £100 off the quoted deal - then mentioned 18 months free finance - and the salesman knew the new year offers.

Sony knocked an extra £150 off - and threw in a £200 speaker stand - then mentioned the 24 month free finance.

If you don't ask you don't get - but don't expect the same level of movement due to the lower ticket price.
