With the economy as it is today, Americans need to realize being frugal is wise. Along with buying things only when we need them, we need to use our electricity the same way. Turn it on only when we need it and turn it off when not in use.
Appliances that are plugged in are energy zappers. Even though they may be turned off, they still consume small amounts of energy, which add up.
We could unplug appliances after using them, but it wouldn’t be very practical. The ideal way would be to get some power strip outlets and plug appliances into them. The power strip outlets can easily be turned on or off with a click of a button.
