Can you still land great short term gas rates in summer? Sure! Let\u2019s create the right short term strategy for you to get fixed until fall!<\/em><\/center><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

How Can I Lock In Great Short Term Rates?<\/h2>\n

Natural gas prices usually dip during the “shoulder month” period in mid-fall. \u00a0So savvy <\/span>Atlanta Gas Light (AGL)<\/span><\/a> customers know that\u2019s the time to lock in their long-term gas rate. But what about now? Can you still land great short term gas rates in summer? Or are you forced to take up a month-to-month variable rate to plug the gap?<\/span><\/p>\n

Absolutely not! Remember, your plans don\u2019t have to match up exactly with the months you need covered. You can still land great\u00a0short term Augusta\u00a0natural gas<\/a>\u00a0rates in the meantime. You just have to get creative<\/em>. So, let\u2019s create the right short term strategy for you to get fixed until fall!<\/span><\/p>\n

Compare Gas Rates —\u00a0<\/b>The Risky Option<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re up for a challenge, you could cobble together 3 months of coverage from the bargain intro rate offers available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Start with one month on the <\/span>Acquisition Variable<\/b><\/a> from <\/span>Gas South<\/b>\u00a0. It’s the cheapest rate on the market at just 29 cents per therm (although add $6.95- $9.95 for the monthly charge). Then, assuming the rate holds, jump onto the 34.9 cents per them discount rate available for two months on the <\/span>Market Intro Plan<\/b><\/a> from <\/span>Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae<\/b>\u00a0– although this is only for new <\/span>customers. The monthly charge is $4.99 – $9.99, but importantly: there is no early termination fee. So if you find a better plan come fall, you can jump right off.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But you\u2019ll have to be vigilant to benefit from these bargain rates. Overstaying the intro period on these plans will see you rolled onto the provider\u2019s variable rate. This can be over a dollar and a half per therm!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Safer Bets<\/b><\/h3>\n

If you don\u2019t want all that hassle, you\u2019re in luck. You can enjoy great short term gas rates by finding a longer term plan, and simply jumping off it when fall arrives. Just make sure you find a nice low termination fee.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To that end, a great option would be the Georgia Natural Gas\u00ae<\/strong><\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/b>6-Month Fixed<\/b><\/a> plan. The competitively priced 55.9 cents per therm rate beats other short term plans. And the $4.99-$7.99 monthly charge is also relatively low. But here\u2019s the kicker: you can terminate this plan whenever you want for just $50!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alternatively, there\u2019s <\/span>SureLock 12<\/b><\/a>\u00a0from XOOM Energy<\/strong>: 39.9 cents per therm is a remarkable rate for any time of year, and the $5.85 monthly recurring charge is also reasonable. Early termination is pricier at $100 – but this is still at the low end. Moreover, if fall doesn\u2019t bring the discounts you\u2019d hoped for, you can hang onto this great rate all year!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
