Anywhere but most retail media shops, places like HMV, Game etc completely rip you off when it comes to things like HDMI leads.

As mentioned, eBay or Amazon for a mega cheap simple HDMI cable, or somewhere like Play.com for a range of the (for lack of a better word) "official" cables.

Reminds me when I was looking for a DVI-HDMI or VGA (can't remember which) cable but I asked a small shop how much they was and said £20 thought omg I know they're cheaper in other place's like £2 £5 at the most I told them that and they looked as me as if I was joking...

use HDMI and on the sound in bottom right, right click it, go to playback devices, and you should see your TV there if its plugged in, set the TV the default and sound should come through TV
