Digital TV: It'll Cost You Ten Bucks

"One week before U.S. households receive the first of thousands of $40 digital converter box coupons, Wal-Mart is stocked and ready with these small converter box units designed to keep home analog TVs receiving a digital signal. Today 3,400 Wal- Mart stores carry a new Magnavox digital converter box, with a retail price of $49.87."

Next year analog TV goes bye-bye. So what to do with all those perfectly good analog TVs? Throw them out? Hardly! The US Government is giving out $40 coupons to help consumers with the cost of converting to digital over the air TV. Wal-Mart is pitching in by educating consumers about all of the digital TV options available to them, and making sure to have plenty of Digital TV Converter boxes on hand when the coupons start arriving at homes next week. So if you've got parents or grandparents who have an older TV and no cable service, be sure and point them in the direction of the nearest Wal-Mart. It's only gonna cost them ten bucks.
