Thanks for tuning in to this week's best TV sales. We've found deals on a variety of WiFi-enabled Samsung LED LCD HDTVs — all of which come bundled with gift cards — including the 50" Samsung UN50F6300 and 46" UN46F5500AFXZA (priced from $750) and the cheapest 42" name-brand 3D LCD HDTV for $398.

  1. Samsung 50" 1080p 120Hz LED-Backlit LCD HD Television bundled with a $150 Dell eGift Card
    Store: Dell Home
    Price: $999.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $99

    Is It Worth It?: Kicking off this week's gift card extravaganza is the 50" Samsung UN50F6300. This LED-backlit LCD TV packs built-in WiFi with support for Samsung's App Store, a 120Hz refresh rate, and four HDMI ports. Also bundled with this TV is a $150 Dell gift card, which effectively makes this TV a current low by $99.

  2. Samsung 46" 1080p WiFi LED-Backlit LCD HD Television bundled with a $125 Dell eGift Card
    Store: Dell Home
    Price: $749.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $74

    Is It Worth It?: Like the above-mentioned TV, the Samsung UN46F5500AFXZA features a razor-thin bezel and 4-legged stand, but this model tops out at 46". This TV also has many of the same features including built-in WiFi with support for streaming from the Samsung App Store, an LED backlight, and three HDMI ports (only one less than the 50" model). We especially like the bundled $125 Dell gift card.

  3. Samsung 40" 1080p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television bundled with a $125 Dell eGift Card
    Store: Dell Home
    Price: $499.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $67

    Is It Worth It?: While this set lacks the built-in WiFi and streaming capabilities of its bigger siblings mentioned above, the 40" Samsung UN40EH5000FXZA makes for a great basic TV with an LED backlight and two HDMI ports. It also comes with a $125 Dell eGift Card.

  4. Vizio 55" 120Hz 1080p WiFi LCD HD Television
    Store: Dell Home
    Price: $649.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $48

    Is It Worth It? Despite being a part of Vizio's budget line of HDTVs, the 55" E552VLE packs plenty of premium features like built-in WiFi with streaming capabilities, a 120Hz refresh rate, and four HDMI ports. Nevertheless, CNET says this TV's "subpar picture quality hurts its chances against the tough competition." That subpar quality mainly stems from the TV's light black levels and inability to properly handle 1080p/24 sources. But if you're more concerned about what your TV can do, CNET says the E552VLE delivers plenty of features for the price.

  5. LG 42" 1080p 3D LED-Backlit LCD HD Television bundled with 4 pairs of 3D glasses
    Store: Walmart
    Price: $398 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $18

    Is It Worth It? Back for the second consecutive week, the LG 42LM3400 is still the least expensive 42" 3D LED LCD HDTV we've seen. It's not as feature-filled as other 3D sets (i.e. there's no support for streaming apps), but few 3D TVs have come close to matching this Editors' Choice TV. Features include a 3" profile, LED backlight, and two HDMI ports. It also includes four pairs of 3D glasses.
