I understand the volume discount model. But is seems counter intuitive, in a market that is experiencing shortages, that I have to pay more for using less!
Our town is a low cost cooperative that can pay big benefits. If you are not a member, I suggest contacting them.

Here's a link to their website. http://www.otchoice.com/
