But did you know you could save up to 2 whole cents on your bill by changing your lightbulbs or something?!

Or by getting a rebate on a smart thermometer or energy efficient heating/cooling equipment! Just not now, because they've conveniently pulled the RI Energy Marketplace offline for a "redesign" during the season when you'd likely benefit most from anything like that.

You can also buy an energy efficient appliance and get a 50 dollar VISA gift card in the mail months from now after you've completely forgot about it.

Honestly changing your lightbulbs makes a HUGE difference. I can't believe there are still people using incandescent.

But I get your point. It's like "Here's a hot tip to save money! Use less electricity. Have you tried shutting off the TV and lights and just sitting alone in the dark with your thoughts?"
