CFL Bulbs Given Away Throughout 2010

 

As a special project in cooperation with Hoosier Energy, REMC will host bulb trade-in days throughout 2010.  Our first 4 bulb trade-in days in 2009 were a big success.  Don't miss your chance this year to get free light bulbs.

The next trade-in day will be August 13th, at our 1697 W Deaver Road Location, from 8:30-4:30.  Any member that brings in an old incandescent bulb will receive a new CFL as a replacement.  The limit is 15, bring in 15 incandescent bulbs and we will give you 15 CFLs.  Keep in mind we will have only 60, 75 and100 watt equivalents and floodlights.  The idea of the trade-in days is for the bulbs that you receive are put to use.  For those that have already received 15, you are welcome to come and get more if you need them to replace the incandescent lighting you are currently using.  We don’t want them sitting on a  shelf.  THIS IS FOR REMC MEMBERS ONLY.

Also on August 13th, REMC will host a fish fry to benefit the United Way.  Come and get your light bulbs and get a fish sandwich too!  Food will be served from 11-1:30.

Remember to always recycle spent CFL bulbs.  REMC has a recycle program.  Drop off your spent CFL bulbs and they will be recycled properly.  If a CFL stops working , it should be properly recycled, not thrown in the trash.

Stay tuned to the Electric Consumer for more trade-in day’s throughout the year!
