We got our refund check from the electric company

We signed up for a 'power saver' program this summer and today we received a check for $86.00 dollars from our electric company, it is not much but it was more than the $18 I expected. DH is taking me out to dinner tomorrow.
Between this and the whole house surge protector/energy saver we really brought down our electric bill. Finally a way to save money that you do not have to think about.
For those who also part. in such a program, check your mailbox and think 'big $$ no whammies'.

We do a similar program except they take $10 (I think) off our bill each month during the summer. It's super easy and something you don't notice at all!

Also - we installed programmable thermostats in our house when we moved in. I'm sure it saves us money and our utility company offers $20 rebates on each of the thermostats!

Enjoy your dinner tomorrow!

I did not realize there may be an option for a monthly rebate instead of an annual rebate. Good to know, thank you.
We should look into the prog. thermo. program. I had horrible luck with the prog. thermo of years ago and they have come a long way since then.
Check out the Nest thermo. they seem VERY cool!
Thanks! Have a great night.
