Freeview box - £10 @ Tesco!

WestonDave

Trowbridge (wiltshire) had probably 40 downstairs by the main doors, and probably getting on for 100 upstairs (they were still unpacking them into a massive stack) so I guess there is a fair amount of stock about.

One word of warning they are single scart socket only but it'll do me until the price of integrated freeview HD recorders drops. Our current one is over 4 years old and increasingly temperamental. (As an aside that was listed at £100 when we got it as a haggled throw in with a new tv so it shows how prices drop)

It was advertised as catalogue number 202-6072. However, the number is not working yet.

___________________________________________________________

Official Insert From Martin with additional info

This is by far the cheapest new Freeview box we've seen; around half the cost of any previous ones meaning 40 extra TV channels & lots of radio channels without ever paying another penny.

This Techwood box previously retailed at £30, and includes everything you need to make your analogue telly work after the digital switchover.

Where's it available?

The £10 box should be available at all Tesco Extras (the really, really big ones), and at a smaller number of regular Tescos. Plus Tesco has confirmed it will be sold online soon, and when that happens the link will be added here (though it's likely to sell out quickly)

If you find one in a regular Tesco, please report which one it was below so other MoneySavers can benefit.

What is Freeview?

It's a terrestrial digital box - in other words you simply plug it into your normal TV aeriel and you can get a lot more channels - over 40 more and you never need pay another penny (plus a whole host of digital radio stations too).

You should always check you're in an area with a strong enough signal (at
