"Phantom loads" cost money

In an effort to reduce my electric bill, I went around my house this weekend and unplugged many of my electrical appliances (TVs, DVD players, etc.) that I don't use often. In other words, I eliminated many "phantom loads.

I did it because I understand that over the course of the year, such appliances could easily cost hundreds of dollars.

But that's a way to save on consumption. If you want to save on your rates (house and / or business), here's a quick tutorial in alternative electric providers available to you in CT.
