As you use more electric service, you buy it
at decreasing rates. That means that each
day’s use of electricity added to the others,
helps make a bigger bargain of the bill that
comes at the end of the month.
LIKE MONEY
IN THE BANK
And in the same way, if you reduce your use of electric
service, with the idea of making a saving, you also sacri­
fice the best part of your bargain, for the reduction comes
at the lowest rate you have earned.
Idaho Power’s electric rates are among the
lowest anywhere in the nation, and rates
have been reduced 21 times since 1927. The
people of southern Idaho and eastern Oregon
have taken full advantage of the privileges
of Cheap Electricity, for they use more elec­
tric service than almost any other group.
Use your electric service freely. It’s a bargain that grows
better as you buy more of it.
