Lately time is just flying by. Sometimes you try and find it but it’s lost.
I guess it really hit me when I was at the doctor’s office yesterday and there was no clocks mounted on the wall. I think they do that so they can stick it to you. While sitting there I was yelled at cause I was on my cell phone, pardon me.. So I couldn’t check the time. Maybe it’s time for a watch. Can’t lose track of time with that right? I ran across these Audemars Piguet watches the other day and they are pretty sweet. I think I can handle one of their watches.
This morning I woke up, still somewhat tired and next thing I know it’s already 4 hours later and I need to leave for soccer. Just crazy. Anyways, I’ve been trying to find more time to blog, do some entrecard drops and get back to posting more often. Maybe if I can find some more time
Oh and most of us lose an hour of sleep tonight, hooray, not. But we get more light
A couple days ago we got our monthly electric bill and I was looking it over and first was glad to see that it went down almost $100 from the month prior. (It’s hot in Texas in August) So I was checking out the rate per kwh and was trying to think back at what we used to pay just a couple years ago. Seems like it’s always going up (just like everything else)
On to page two and the energy company has a killer new deal. (Maybe to some) I start reading this new deal that they want to offer us. Reading through the offer they say we can get a guaranteed rate of 14.9 cents per kwh. Ok that sounds pretty good, I check our current rate and it’s only 15.7 and for peak 16.5 .. hmmm I’m not even saving more than .01 cent. To humor myself I continue to read and of course you have to sign this contract which will guarantee this rate for 2 years, which is also the contract length. OK so you want us to lock in for two years. So I read the fine print..
If you disconnect or cancel your service before the 2 years is up we will charge you an early disconnect fee of $295.00 . Uh WHAT..!
No thanks Mr. Energy Company. Not going to sign that for very, very little savings.
I don’t want to get stiffed by you for that amount.
Anyone else run across stupid or ridiculous contract break fees?
