For some reason I thought they expired at the end of June and that I had plenty of time. After reading the thread below, I figured I'd better take them out to remind myself, and noticed they expired May 26th. D'oh! I tried to use them at Circuit City this evening and explained the situation. He was willing to try, and rang up the boxes and it looked like the sale was going to go through until the very end, when it rejected the coupons. Not something the manager can override, either, as it is a gubmint thing.
I know what the website says, but has anyone attempted (and succeeded) in getting them re-issued?
(P.S. I'm still not sure I'll even need them as Comcast keeps advertising that as long as you have cable TV service, you'll still be able to use your older TV. I thought you'd need either their cable box or one of these other converters. We do have one set top box for the new HDTV, but for all the others we just connect the coax into the back of the TV and pick up the analog stations from Comcast. I get the impression they're saying that won't change, in which case I don't have to be concerned about the coupons at all.)
