Around here the natural gas is offered in a deregulated form every year or two depending on plan. For many years I used what is called the "Pass On" rate. It looks at the cost on the open market and passes it on with a slight profit to the consumer. A few years ago I used a company that advertised as "Lower than Pass On" for a year. The following two years I opted for a fixed cost by 1000 therm at 27.2 cents. This go-round I changed providers again and locked in to 26.7 per 1000 therm for two years. Anyone else live in a de-regulated market and what are they charging in your area?
