Home Depot is hosting a FREE Do-It-Herself Workshop today, Thursday October 23, from 7pm to 8:30 pm. You will learn ways to significantly reduce your energy bills. They will show you how leaks in your walls affect your heating and cooling costs, how insulating your HVAC system benefits your wallet, and how properly caulking windows and doors prevents drafts and high heating bills. Plus, every attendee will receive a coupon for $10 off a $100 purchase!
In addition to the workshop, The Home Depot wants to know how people are saving energy in their home in its “Save Money. Save Energy. Win Big.” video contest. Just shoot a short video to show how you’re saving money and helping the environment by making your home more energy efficient.
Anyone can log on to www.homedepot.com/youtube to enter their video between now and Nov. 9, 2008. The contest winner will receive a $5,000 Home Depot gift card and up to $2,000 for installed insulation or radiant barrier products from The Home Depot.
The energy savings videos should focus on conserving energy in your home and addressing issues to prevent high energy bills. The videos will be judged on relevance to the energy savings theme, originality and creativity. The second and third place winners will receive a $1,500 and $500 gift card, respectively.
Good Luck!!
