Need a new appliance? Why not apply for the Alabama Energy Efficient Appliance Rebate Program? Check the site for all of the rules but you must replace an existing appliance with a new Energy Star qualified appliance. The purchase date must be after April 19, 2010 and the rebate only lasts until the funds are depleted. As a matter of fact, the funds are from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
Note - this program is only for the state of Alabama residents.
