‘Wow!’ Joliet senior uses CUB Energy Saver, wins free power
August 17, 2010 —Real-time Pricing customer Martha Skoien saves money by running the dishwasher and doing laundry at night, when power prices are low.
After hearing about CUB’s latest tool, CUB Energy Saver, the 85-year-old retired nurse from Joliet signed up to create a personalized plan to cut her gas and electric bills even more. But Skoien went beyond cutting her bill—she won an entire month of free power when her name was picked in CUB Energy Saver’s quarterly drawing. “Wow!” she said. “It’s a pleasant surprise.” All consumers who use CUB Energy Saver are eligible for monthly drawings for 50 Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFLs) and quarterly drawings for a month of free electricity, courtesy of CUB. Skoien says a month’s break from paying the electric bill will be a welcome relief, helping her pay some of her other monthly expenses.
