Energy Saver's Rebate Program

I received an email from GE today. The email was obviously an attempt to get me to purchase new appliances from GE but the selling point is actually a good opportunity to take advantage of some Federal Funding which has become available from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). Apparently part of the act allots funding to State's for a rebate program to encourage residents to recycle their old appliances and purchase newer energy efficient appliances.

A perfect solution to the problem? No, of course not. A step in the right direction? Maybe. A chance for you to save some money on buying that new refrigerator you needed? Of course, take advantage of it if you can.

Here are a couple of links:
