Switching out those old incandescent light bulbs for energy-efficient compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) is a great way to save money on your electric bill, but CFLs are expensive. You can coupon your way to free bulbs, but you can also get them from your energy provider for free—I contacted my electric company and got all kinds of free goodies!

Check your local utility companies for free energy-saving products, often called Energy Conservation or Efficiency Kits. You may be able to get free light bulbs, power strips, faucet aerators, shower heads and more!

These programs are funded via a charge on your utility bills, so you've already paid for your "freebies." If you don't go online and sign up for your kit, then you won't get your stuff. In other words, your electric and/or gas company will not automatically send you your kit. These kits are typically one per household and are not income dependent.

Here are a few of the kits available:

  • Ohio. FirstEnergy Energy. Conservation Kit Program. Get nine compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs), a smart strip/surge protector, a furnace filter whistle and two LED night lights.
