Looks like I'm getting a new fridge — for free!
Through the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. "Energy Partners" program. (http://pge.com/energypartners)

They're gonna replace it because it's more than 15 years old and thus uses twice the energy of a newer one. They're also gonna insulate my windows and doors and stuff, all for free. :7




I just can't shake the feeling that I've been royally had in a well-engineered scam. Ah, the price of cynicism.

2. For all the valid complaints about ole P G & E, the one strength is energy-reduction programs.
We've benefitted from several appliance rebates over the years. You'll love how much money you'll save with a new fridge. When we replaced the old 15 cubic ft with a new 18 cubic ft model our bill went down by $10 a month.

3. what a great program
i've heard of the state grant programs for weatherization, but this is better coming directly from the electric company, and for free.

cool. congrats! and enjoy your new fridge. :)
