Since 1991, October has been designated by the federal government as Energy Awareness Month. Where we live, October is usually a fantastic month for our electricity bill, as our air conditioning is rarely getting used, and our heater is rarely getting used. It’s actually a great time of year to ponder what steps my family can take to have every utility bill look more like October’s! 

Best Buy is ready to help us do just that, by making it easy to find over 2,300 different  ENERGY STAR® certified products online and in stores. These products are designed to be energy-efficient, which is not only good for the environment, but also saves you money in monthly energy costs. Best Buy also helps customers get connected with any local utility rebates that might be offered. They want to help you save as much money as you can, and I love that they go above and beyond to help you do that by getting you connected with the ENERGY STAR rebates in your area. Isn’t it awesome that having a green home can help you save up to $300 in rebates alone? Love it!
