On the 'fringes' here, now with digital broadcast, I get many many more stations than previously (5 additional PBS stations, 2 old sitcom rerun stations, a weather station, 2 hobby stations, a black station, a gospel station, a hispanic station, a cartoon station, and a b movie station).

Agreed about the tvs themselves though, they are getting pretty cheap.

A car loses quite a bit of value the day you drive it off the lot, are all their cars new or second hand? Your situation is unusual, do you have an outdoor antenna? Many viewers here discovered that rabbit ears do not cut the mustard and getting an outdoor antenna is not cheap. Cable may cost more in the long run but if your credit card is already pushing the limit, a smaller monthly charge may be the way you have to go.

I still maintain that the original author was playing with half a deck, too many factors than simple posession of gadgets. For that matter are they all owned or on rental or rent to own.
