NOT IN FIGHTING SHAPE FOR GAME DAY? READ OUR TIPS FOR GETTING RID OF THAT FLU

Watch it Your Way

Let’s begin at the beginning, which in this case is the television set. A decent TV is essential to a good party, because even though your guests couldn’t get tickets to the game, they still want to see the action up close and personal. But if you missed out (or didn’t feel like braving) the Black Friday sales back in November, don’t fear. We’ve got deals on TVs. At Sony, you’ll save up to $600 off select HX HDTVs. At Paul’s TV, a Panasonic TCL47E50 LED HDTV is $599 plus free shipping (was $1,099.99!). And at Walmart, a 40’’ Sceptre LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV is just $298. 

Stock the Larder

Did we mention the food? You’ll want some all-star noshes to quell nervous nail-biting during the second half. At Macy's, you’ll find enameled cookware – the perfect vehicle for your go-to chili recipe – from reputable names like Le Creuset and Martha Stewart at 40-60% off retail price. And don’t forget the sweets. Macy's is offering 20-50% off baking sheets, dishes and more. Need menu ideas to spice things up? Check out Foodnetwork.com for traditional favorites like buffalo wings and seven-layer dip to Big Easy specialties like shrimp po’boys and spicy Cajun seafood stew. 

Get Geared Up

Support your team in style. At Football Fanatics, you’ll find all the swag you need to look sharp on game day (and you'll save 5% with this coupon). Whether you’re cheering for the Ravens or the 49ers, you’ll find jerseys, hats and specialty issue beer koozies with your team’s logo. At Birthday in a Box, you’ll save 50% off all themed tableware, which includes festive football cups, napkins and plates. And, since the Super Bowl is in New Orleans this year (and awfully close to Fat Tuesday), why not get some Mardi Gras beads to give your guests as party favors? At Stumps, you’ll save 5% off your purchase.
