Here's an interesting deal that will fit some people's needs. Do you have old family photos that are fading, old movies on 8mm film reels, or old VHS cassette tapes of family memories? Do you wish you could get them in permanent DVD digital format? There is a service called ScanDigital. You mail your materials to them, and they turn them into DVDs. Today only Groupon has a deal to get $100 worth of service
from ScanDigital for $40. That's enough to do 200 photos, 170 negatives, 145 slides, six 8mm reels or five videocassettes. They do color correction on old photos. I have a bunch of old movies on 8mm reels, and some early video cassettes when Jordan was a baby*. I'm doing this deal and getting them converted to DVDs. Here's how to get the Groupon deal.

1) Go to Groupon
2) Register, or if you are already a member, click on "Visit Other Cities" at the very top of the page.
3) Click on San Antonio. You don't have to live in San Antonio since this is an on-line deal.
4) Buy into the deal.
ScanDigital will generate a mailing label for your materials. After about a week, you get back the original copies along with the new DVDs. This deal is limit 3 per person. I just walked around the house and gathered up eleven 8 mm's and old videocassettes, all family movies, and so I'm doing the deal twice.
* Does any remember those big clunky video recorders we got for free from the Camel/Salem deal in the 1990's? If you have VHS tapes, this is the right deal to convert them to DVDs.
