I've just spotted a truly ridiculous deal on one of the best OLED TVs – and if you're looking for an affordable display for movies, sports, shows and gaming – then you'll want to know about it. Right now, you can snap up the LG B5 48-inch OLED TV at Best Buy for $549.99 (was $1,299.99).

We first saw this amazing deal on Black Friday, and since then, it has returned to full price. I had no expectations that we'd see this best-ever deal return so soon, but I'm seriously glad it has – especially with this year's Super Bowl just a couple of weeks away.
