TV digital converter box deal

This week at Meijer, they are offering Summer Bucks coupons. You get a certain dollar amount off for buying a general merchandise item. The more the item costs, the more you get off. If you happened to get your coupons from the government for $40 towards a new converter box, you should be able to use them in conjunction with the Meijer Bucks to get a really good deal on a converter box. I haven't done this yet myself but will check it out and let you know. I suppose you will be better off to just not get one at all and avoid the brain numbing programing that is sure to continue to exude from your television whether it is digital or analog.
