In Canada, we have the big Boxing Day (Dec 26) sales still... but as for a long term seasonal shift in pricing, that doesn't seem to happen.

And just for public information, a buddy of mine was working for a major electronics retailer over the holidays (>>) and mentioned that Home Theatre was the Holy Grail for sales guys. Bigger markups on all the HT stuff than the appliances, computers and consumer electronics - means more haggle room for consumers, though.
