I was at a party over the weekend and some kid was telling me he has his own company. He started giving me his sales pitch for ambit  
and how he can save me so much money. Talked on how he makes 30k a year just working a few hours a week and how his group leader drives a mercedes.

Where do I sign up?

PS - Scott hooked me up, saving approximate $20/per bill\* (gas & elec) now.

\*previous savings do not indicate future performance.

Ok, this kinda seals it, related to my current struggle trying to be nice to an in-law about her Ambit thing. Thanks for the heads-up.

And Scott…we’ll be talking very soon about this, for both the shop and the rental property.

Yea its like a cult following, the people who do it are so intense when it comes to finding people to sign up becuase that is how thye get paid. same thing with Market America. I know someone who makes a shit ton of money but it is not for everyone.

Shot you a message back Long.

[http://www.buffalonews.com/business/gas-prices-may-rise-this-winter-20131007](http://www.buffalonews.com/business/gas-prices-may-rise-this-winter-20131007)

Like this article, I keep hearing in the news that natural gas rates will rise, even though production is increasing. There are many factors that go into pricing, but we also offer fixed rates to help with cost control. You can lock in for a year, and no matter how the market changes, you know exactly what youre paying per kilowatt or ccf/therm.

Just another option in case you dudes want to try and beat the market and lock in. I can help with that.

oh Ambit, I was going to meet with an old friend for some drinks and somehow ended up at an ambit info session at the adams mark… I did not sign up to say the least. A week later I had someone stop at my door from Family Energy trying to get me to sign up and lock in my rate for a year, she almost wouldnt let me go but I just kept refusing until she got the point and left.

Rates for both gas and electricity are climbing due to the weather and high demand. If any of you dudes want to lock in at a fixed rate and take yourself out of the market, shoot me an email at [switter@noco.com](mailto:switter@noco.com). We can talk biz and see what works.
