Does anyone know of any decent Widescreen Televisions for less than £300? and any CD Sound Systems for less than £200? If so where from? Thanks

Crikey! You`re pushing the budget a bit, I`m afraid, particularly for a "name" brand. Makro could supply a Goodmans/Bush 28" WS for £235 odd (£199 + VAT). http://www.unbeatable.co.uk have a few just under the £300 mark, but I`d be tempted to consider the Philips 28PW6006 (NO CABINET) model for £319.96 - plus delivery, unfortunately. Have a look at http://www.qed-uk.com/?i=XJ33Z0Xf7mq0&bg=166&v=8 too - the deliver free, so WYSIWYG.

CD Sound systems? What do you mean - a mini system? I don`t have much experience of these devices, but am fishing around for something for my parents at the moment - particularly if you don`t want cassette deck, then have a look on the Richer Sounds website - they have some of the TEAC stuff cheap, which gets well reviewed. Eg, TEAC Reference 100, £159. Leaves you some £££ for a pair of speakers. Or the Denon DM30, perhaps?

Yeah seen the Philips TV on empiredirect, looks a good deal, just under £300. Does anyone have one of these and if so are they any good?

what id do mate is go to a good newsagents and buy "what television" .......
this would give you a list of every t.v at what price and also a full review...
this way you will get the best one for the best price.you will then see that the more expensive ones arent always the best....

Just bought a cracking Daewoo 28" Pure Flatscreen TV from Asda - £299. Bargain (and with 3 year guarantee). They only seem to be available in the larger stores, so you might want to phone round first.
Cheers

Look at QED.com, as Richard-H pointed out, they have an LG tv for £294 inc delivery. Haven`t heard anything about it, but LG stuff is usually pretty decent.
