Right before the Super Bowl is a good time to buy a fancy new TV

People typically associate Black Friday with good deals on TVs, but it’s not your only chance to score a cheap display. The Super Bowl usually happens right after the annual Consumer Electronics Show, which is when manufacturers announce all their fancy new models. As a result, you can find some very solid deals on current TVs to make room for the new stuff.



While you might be able to find cheaper TVs on the whole around Thanksgiving, the Super Bowl approach is when many of the higher-end TVs actually go on sale, rather than the ultra-bargain panels.

A few tips before we dive into the deals:

You’re going to want your new TV to support 4K (and HDR if you can swing it), but the game itself won’t be broadcast in 4K. The upcoming 2018 Winter Olympics, however, will have 4K content to consume.

Buying a really big, really cheap TV won’t get you a perfect viewing experience. You’re likely better off buying a smaller, higher quality TV, than going purely on size.

Once you get your new TV, set aside some time to tweak the picture so it looks its best. Here’s a guide to get you going.

Does apple cider vinegar actually do anything?

Image
If something claims to be a miracle cure—for cancer, for overeating, for run-of-the-mill acne—you should start by assuming it isn’t. Life is hard and long and there are no easy shortcuts, especially when it comes to your health. That includes the internet darling that is apple cider vinegar. Proponents of the fermented liquid seem to think it can cure just about any ailment, and sometimes advise taking shots of it to stave off illness. Cider vinegar is just one in a sea of trendy superfoods that plague the web, but it’s a great example of how easy it is to ascribe unfounded health benefits to generally innocuous ingredients. Apple cider vinegar won’t magically make your problems go away, no matter how much you believe in it. Most of the “evidence” in support of its benefits comes from shoddy journals and pseudo-doctors. In fact, there seems to be just one thing it could theoretically be good for. Well, actually, two. Apple cider vinegar is a great way to catch flies. Way better...
