The cost of these things in the UK is below $40 if you deduct the taxes so I expect them to become even cheaper. What happens with the coupon when you buy a box for less than $40??

I've already trained on the use of these coupons.
The coupons can only be used one time. So if you buy say a $30 converter box the leftover amount is lost. Tax is also not covered, so you still owe the tax even if the box is $30.

"EchoStar, the parent company of Dish Network, announced that it will sell a digital TV converter box for $39.99. The company said its TR-40 converter box will be available in limited quantities in March and unlimited quantities in June."
