I can assure you they don't lose money by selling a 40" TV for $230.00 and if I remember correctly one year we had a TOM TOM for sale in the ad for $100.00. The cost / price we bought that tom tom for was $70.00 so we made roughly $30.00 per tom tom sold (I think we had 250 of them). Back then the cheapest GPS was 199.99 so a 99.99 was a steal or so people thought.</p></blockquote><p></p>
