     Do you have suggestions for prizes for 2025

           

  • Just put prize money to give us on our bill.
  • Kitchen appliances, gardening tools
  • I have been w/REC for 5 years and have NEVER won the $75 or mon. $10. Break $500 to $250 – more people have a chance to win.
  • Maybe give away a $100.00 and $150.00 electric credit, randomly throughout drive thru and in-person meeting.
  • Instead of two $500, why not make it four $250 prizes.
  • I liked the credit on my bill!
  • Maybe flashlights, nail files
  • There was one entry stuck in screen for almost full time – and taking out a handful at a time doesn’t seem fair.
  • I think everyone who takes time to show up should get some amount of credit.
