Beyond The Blue

[#1]

Game of Thrones fans celebrate- the last season is upon us! Winter has arrived, and we're all sitting on the edges of our seats to find out who will ascend to the Iron Throne. Settle in for one last round of watch parties, and root for your favorite house (or, in my case, the White Walkers). Here's the tech you need to pick up before settling in to savor these last few episodes.

Upgrade Your Home Theater

What better way to watch the final season than on a brand new TV? Besides looking great, you're going to want things to sound great, too. Best Buy offers a variety of sound solutions, ranging from simple sound bars to custom surround sound systems. If your new TV isn't smart enabled, or if you're not quite looking to upgrade your Home Theater right now, you can always pick up a streaming media device so that you can still catch the last episodes as they are being released (you can find a list of HBO-compatible streaming devices on HBO's website). Geek Squad is standing by to help get everything set up and installed.

Get Comfortable

You're about to spend a lot of time sitting, so you might as well make sure that you're sitting comfortably. Best Buy and Magnolia offer a variety of theater seating options, including power recliners, cup holders, snack consoles, and more. Set up some smart lights, so that you can set appropriate ambiance in the room or turn lights off without getting up.

Get Your Snack On

Prepare the junk food feast of your dreams! Ok, you can also make a healthy meal ahead of time and have it ready to go in time for the big show. Best Buy has a great selection of small appliances, ranging from crock pots, air fryers, and pressure cookers, to novelty food appliances, such as popcorn poppers and waffle makers. You can even upgrade your cave to have a mini fridge, kegerator, or wine cooler!

Catch up on the Series

Best Buy has a great selection of blu-ray, digital, and dvd copies of prior seasons, including multi-season collections. Catch up on any episodes that you missed, or pick up all of the seasons to loan out to your watch party friends.
