Time to get out my AC current meter and calculate just what each is costing
us - then add it up.

Any suggestions ??

Isn't it a shame we are reduced to this now, the moment we start costing
baths, showers, boiling water for coffee, flushing the loo and other
every day things the enjoyment goes out of life.

When standby first became popular it enabled us to turn TVs on without
leaving the chair, well worth paying for.

Regretfully we all will cut back dramatically but end up paying the same
(or more) and the power companies will make the same profits for
supplying less of the product.
