TXU Wants to Help You Brighten the Holidays Without Emptying Your Wallet

For those of us that enjoy decorating for the holidays, finding the right balance between fun and festive decorations and watching our spending and energy consumption can be tricky. Do I dare fill my front yard with a full Santa scene? Or should I just go with a string of small blinking lights draped across the window?

This year, TXU has offered their help in solving this dilemma. Before you string up your holiday wares, check out their Light Calculator. Just enter the number of bulbs your tribute to Frosty the Snowman requires and TXU will tell you the approximate kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage per day as well as your approximate cost per day and per month!

In addition to this handy calculator, TXU also offers a guide to choosing your lights and other holiday decorating tips. Check out their Holiday Guide to Lights for more.
