The jump in this year’s electric bills is all worth it for the smiles given in return.
“It’s all about joy,” said Tim Young of Hanson who assembled an amazing holiday lights display with 150-plus inflatables tossed in for added delight.
“LED lights help with the cost because it would have been impossible with the rates being higher,” said Young who said his electric bill per month easily pushes past $500.
He’s just one of the many Bay State residents who refused to pull the plug on Christmas lights. Inflation is a scrooge, but here’s a few of the homes you decorated.
And, according to Herald readers who took part in the holiday lights poll, the winner was 103 Ocean Street in Lynn.
It was all in good fun. Merry Christmas.
