What's the biggest flat screen TV that I can use at home? I don't want to pay that much for a new big flat screen TV. Please give me some links from either Coscto or Target or Bestbuy that have good affordable TV's.

How about an actual budget? Affordable to one person might mean $1,000. It could be $2,000 to someone else, and perhaps $3,000 to another person. The word affordable doesn't really mean anything in this situation frankly.
Don't skimp on quality whatever you do. Be willing to go down a size if it means sticking with a higher end brand or a better quality model/series from a given brand. The mid-range models are usually the best bang for the buck. The entry level ones models, even from the top tier brands, can be attractive price wise, but can sometimes lack important features that really impact video and/or audio quality.
Panasonic, Sony, Sharp, Samsung, LG, and Toshiba are all your friends. I would confine your search and eventual purchase to one of those brands. They are all really strong manufacturers. I would recommend avoiding any other brands.
37" or smaller, you really only need a basic HDTV. A CCFL 720p 60Hz LCD will serve you just fine. Paying for the "advanced" features in those sizes doesn't garner much return on the investment (poor bang for the buck since you don't really notice the difference of having those features very much).
40" - 46" is a grey area. Some people like to start going with advanced options like 1080p (Plasma and LCD), 120Hz/240Hz refresh rates (LCD only), LED backlights (LCD only), or going with Plasma (over any form of LCD). Others feel that you can still get a great HD experience with the basic options. I lean towards going advanced feature set, but know people that have gone basic and absolutely love their HD viewing experience. Best way to sort that out for yourself, go into a store and look with your own eyes. See if it makes a difference for you.
50"+ you want advanced features. At that point I would really highly recommend going with a 1080p Plasma.
Check out Amazon.com for prices. They often have some of the best prices/sales all year round. That can give you a good sense of what you should pay for the TV you want. Also, if you can find a store that will price match them, all the better (if you chose to not buy from them).
Some good, what I consider, large sized, and affordable HDTVs,
Panasonic TC-P50G10 - http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-VIERA-TC-P50G10-50-Inch-Plasma/dp/B001UAEWUS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1262283421&sr=8-1 or the slightly updated G15 - http://www.abcwarehouse.com/product_catalog/pc_proddetails.asp~assort_id~1300~prod_ID~24260
Panasonic TC-P50S1 - http://www.abcwarehouse.com/product_catalog/pc_proddetails.asp~assort_id~1300~prod_ID~26126 - still a great TV, a bit less contrast to the G series, but still a top performer
SHARP AQUOS LC46E77U/UN - http://www.abcwarehouse.com/product_catalog/pc_proddetails.asp~assort_id~1300~prod_ID~24089
SONY KDL52V5100 - http://www.abcwarehouse.com/product_catalog/pc_proddetails.asp~assort_id~1300~prod_ID~26080
Samsung 46B750 - http://www.abcwarehouse.com/product_catalog/pc_proddetails.asp~assort_id~1300~prod_ID~24069
You can find those models around at other places like Best Buy as well. ABC Warehouse though often has some really strong prices so that's why I used them an Amazon for the price quotes above. But those are all solid models.
Sony - stick with V or W series. Those are good mid-range choices that will serve you well in larger sized sets.
Samsung - stick with 650 or 750 series. Those are good mid-range series that will serve you well in larger sizes (The 7 series just adds multimedia features, which if you don't want/need you can save money and stick it out with the 6 series).
LG - stick with the LH40 series. I think that's the best bang for buck series from them. Unless you really need/want more advanced features from the higher series.
Sharp - The 77U series is likely the go to series from them for your needs.
Panasonic - my personal recommendation for larger sized sets; The S and U series offer really good quality TVs for sometimes more "affordable" prices. If you want some of the more advanced image options though look for the G series (look around, with a good sale can sometimes actually be close in price to a S series).
What do u think the USA will do if there r no Hispanics working in the field with over 100 temp?
thelma
I meant the I has seen a lot of men n woman working in the field picking up vegetables, cleaning bathrooms, cooking, mowing the lawn of familys who have kids/teens who r just siiting in the couch wathing tv instead of doing something productive just for example my 5 year old kid like to mow the yard with me, or water the plants outside, or help his daddy with our vegetable garden. R they really that bad for the USA?
Answer
I hear this all the time. You know, Americans aren't lazy and that work got done before people started coming here illegally.
Before we had so many illegal immigrants, Americans with not much education could get jobs as fast food workers, cooks,gardeners, and janitors, etc. Now they can't, because illegals will do these jobs for cheaper. So, it has led to a lack of entry-level jobs for teenagers and the less educated. And now it's difficult to order food in English.
