GOTCHA!




The utility company that we buy our home natural gas from sent us an offer that was hard to refuse.  If we sign up to equalize our bill year around, like we would be paying the same in the winter as we do in the summer they would give us a $50 credit on the next billing cycle.  We took advantage of it.  And, true to their word, on the next bill there was a $50 credit.  But there was also $50 more added, in the hidden costs.  We called about  their billing department about it .  The lady explained that when we signed up for the new billing system we were breaking our old contract.  There is a $50 charge for breaking your current contract. 


To top things off, she should have said, "GOTCHA!"
