Government coupons that will save you money on a Digital TV converter box are starting to arrive in mailboxes.

Many viewers have asked, “When will I receive my digital TV converter box coupon?"

The coupons, which actually look like credit cards, are being mailed out based on when you applied for one.

If you applied in January, you should get yours this week. But if you just applied last week, you won't get them until May.

The letters also come with a list of local stores that are selling the converter boxes.

Each coupon will save you $40 on one box.
