Best Buy Student Deals has a $90 off for Insignia™ - 2.1-Channel 80W Soundbar System with Wireless Subwoofer - Black. Ends up being $60 shipped free or curbside store pickup.

The specs are nothing special but at this price I am willing to try it to replace my 5-year old LG sound bar that would no longer connect to its wireless subwoofer.

YMMV as not everyone can use student deal, although if you are on SD, chances are you figured this out a long time ago. Most of the former students these days retained their .edu emails, so this should be doable for many.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

So you can use the TV remote for the sound and not have 2 remotes. You will see some TV's have one of the HDMI ports labeled ARC. This is where you would connect a soundbar with that feature.
$60 is great but 80W and no hdmi.
Why would you need HDMI for the Sound Bar? It has optic input for digital in.

There should be an option to "apply this offer" somewhere in checkout, or in the student deal section of your account

Thanks OP! As a former student, I did not think this would work. However, I signed up (just had to give an estimated graduation date and school) and it worked! The offer showed up instantly in my member offers [bestbuy.com] page. I applied it and was even able to get it shipped for free.
Now , hopefully this helps to fix my issue w/ the sound cutting out on the Insignia TV from black friday.

80w includes the subwoofer? I can't imagine this punches too much. 2xRCA, 1 optical and 1 minijack inputs, sub is wireless. I guess it may work for some in some situations.

wait, since you know a little be of this sound bar. I have question. What do you mean the subwoofer is wireless? I know it has power cord, but how to connect to sound bar?
It connects wirelessly between sound bar and sub. You still need to plug in power to sub

I thought there's cable connect between subwoofer and sound bar, looks like I'm not going to buy then.
From what I understand the sub has no inputs (other than power), there is just wireless pairing with soundbar.

Just bought my daughter a TCL 6 series for her room and she need a new 3.5mm to RCA cable for the old audio setup. It was going to cost me $10 to buy and ship the cable. Saw this deal and it was $65 after tax with same day shipping. It was too cheap not to buy. Thanks OP.
