A PLUNGE
TO PLEASE YOU
Through the years the trend in the price
of electricity has been downward
All eyes turn to the breath-taking beauty
and grace of an expertly performed swan
dive. It never fails to thrill.
There is another plunge that should in
terest the budget-minded (and who isn’t,
in these days of high prices?). It’s the
drop in the price of electricity. •
While nearly everything else was going ‘
up —up—up in price, electricity was
coming down. Today you are getting more
than times as much electricity for your ;
money as our customers did 30 years ago! .
The price you pay per kilowatt-hour is
22.4 percent below the national average.
Isn’t that convincing proof that your elec
trie service here in Georgia is the biggest
bargain in your household budget?
