Amazon launched its Football Kickoff 2014 store (http://amzn.to/1pm1anr) in advance of the NFL season and is featuring TVs as part of the product roster. With tailgates becoming “more high-tech,” there’s stronger demand for what Amazon calls less traditional tailgating products, including outdoor pizza ovens, portable generators and “state-of-the-art TVs.” Staggered TV deals throughout Amazon’s “kick-off” include Samsung’s 55-inch 4K Ultra HD smart UN55HU7250, cut 14 percent to $1,897, through Sept. 13. The Sharp 70-inch Aquos Q+ 3D smart TV is on sale for $2,297, a 15 percent discount, through Sept. 27, and Vizio’s 70-inch E700i-B3 HD TV will sell for $1,499, with a $100 Amazon gift card thrown in, from Aug. 31 to Sept. 6, Amazon said. Tailgate deals will run throughout the fall, the retailer said.
