How to save on your electric bill 

Has your electricity bill gone sky-high?
If YES, there is an easy way to substantially reduce your bill.

With the outrageous price increase in electricity recently, you've probably heard about switching your energy supplier, but where do you start? How difficult is it? What does it really do and how much will you really save?

Join us for a presentation by Roy Baessler, who will talk about how to lower your electricity bill (Roy lowered his own bill by $1000) by visiting energyswitchma.gov and searching for different electricity suppliers. Bring a recent electric bill to the presentation to compare what your rates are compared to some of the providers he will show.

He will tell us what to look for in a new supplier and give us the tools to easily make the switch so you can save this winter.
