I just applied for the govt coupons today.

I am getting two $40 coupons. So the question is, what do these things cost in the store?

Just get a new TV. If you have an old ass tv and no cable, then life sucks.

If you have a satellite or cable box, you won't need it.

You'll only need it for over the air broadcasts.

I got those coupons but will never buy a old skool tv, and I don't really watch tv.
