Plasma Deals: Panasonic 50-inch TC-P50UT50 1080p 3D Smart HDTV: $800.99 with Free Blu-ray 3D Player

By Rachel Cericola

Good morning, bargain hunters! It's another day, which means we're one more step closer to the Christmas holiday. The countdown is on and you only have a few short weeks left to shop.

Don't settle for a gift that looks like it was snatched off the discount shelf just two days before Christmas. What to make a big impression this year? We have just the deal from Panasonic.

We found Panasonic selling the 50-inch TC-P50UT50 1080p 3D Plasma HDTV for just $800.99. Yes, the company is selling it direct, and for a price that's $200 off the MSRP. However, the best part about it isn't just the money that you save or the free shipping. It's that this purchase comes with a free Pansonic DMP-BDT220 Blu-ray 3D Player. Hooray for freebies!

This 50-incher is part of the company's UT50 Series. It doesn't have built-in WiFi (although it's an optional if you want to buy an adapter). However, it does have active 3D technology, which means you'll get a sharp 1080p HD image when viewing 3D and 2D content. It also has a 2D-to-3D conversion feature, fast-switching phosphors and VIERA Link.

The aforementioned connectivity is something that you're going to want to think about, since this set also includes access to VIERA Connect. This is Panasonic's web-based platform, which can deliver Netflix, Hulu Plus, Facebook, and several other apps, all via the included remote.

Just remember that this offer also includes the DMP-BDT220 Blu-ray 3D Player. You don't even have to add it to your cart to get the goods, either. Once you add the TV to your shopping cart, the player will appear automatically -- and at absolutely no cost. This player can support both 2D and 3D Blu-rays, as well as DVDs and CDs. Other features include built-in WiFi and access to the same VIERA Connect service.

Now, we're not sure, but it looks like this price and the free player will be good through the end of the year. That means if someone isn't all that happy with your gift, you may still be able to make it up by snagging this set after the holiday. However, we're guessing this one will go fast, so if you wait, Panasonic may run out of stock and/or pull the offer. Happy shopping!
