Whether you're looking for a new big-screen TV to watch the upcoming World Cup or just want a small set to keep you company in the kitchen, this week's best TV deals have you covered. We've got two 39" TVs that come with sizable free gift cards, as well as a massive discount on a 65" 4K TV.

  1. VIZIO Razor 39" 1080p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television and a $125 Dell eGift Card
    Store: Dell Home
    Price: $329.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $125

    Is It Worth It?: It's true that most stores will charge the same price for this TV, but if you buy from Dell, you'll also snag a $125 gift card in the process (it's added to your cart automatically). Assuming you use the gift card for necessary accessories, that's like paying $205 for 39" of screen real estate. This TV features a native resolution of 1920x1080 (1080p), LED backlight, USB, and two HDMI inputs.

  2. Seiki 22" 1080p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television
    Store: Sears
    Price: $89.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $32

    Is It Worth It?: Sometimes good things come in little packages, like this Seiki TV which is at the lowest we've seen for any 22" 1080p LED LCD HDTV. Features include a native resolution of 1920x1080 (1080p), built-in 3D video noise reduction, and HDMI and USB inputs.

  3. LG 38.5" 1080p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television
    Store: Dell Small Business
    Price: $399.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $69

    Is It Worth It?: If you're a fan of the top deal because of the sizable gift card, but would prefer a better-known manufacturer, look no further than this Editors' Choice deal. It's $70 more but comes with a larger gift card, not to mention the fact that this deal has dropped $80 in price since last week. Features include a native resolution of 1920x1080 (1080p), LED backlighting, and two HDMI ports.

  4. Samsung 40" 1080p LED-Backlit LCD HD Television
    Store: Best Buy
    Price: $398.99 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $80

    Is It Worth It?: A prime example of the benefits to buying previous-generation models, this well-equipped Samsung TV is now at the lowest price we could find by $80. Features include 1920x1080 (1080p) native resolution, SmartTV Internet applications (including Vudu, Hulu Plus, YouTube, and more), wireless connectivity, two USB ports, three HDMI inputs, and other inputs.

  5. Seiki 65" 4K Ultra 2160p LED LCD HD Television
    Store: TigerDirect
    Price: $1,199.96 with free shipping
    Lowest By: $749

    Is It Worth It?: We've talked at length about how quickly 4K TVs are dropping in cost, but this deal still astonishes even us; while the $1,200 price tag is nothing to sneeze at, you can't beat the $749 savings. It features a 3840x2160 resolution — four times that of 1080p TVs. It also has a 120Hz refresh rate, LED backlight, and three HDMI ports.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
