San Diego County CA— The last of the sweepstakes that San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) has been sponsoring throughout August to give away LED lights, smart thermostats, smart power strips, and digital assistants, will take place on Monday, August 21.
The Marketplace sweepstakes are open to all residential customers of SDG&E who are at least 18 years old and are legal residents. No purchase is necessary to enter the sweepstakes. The prizes are donated by manufacturers.

Goodies galore

Among the giveaways for the August 21 sweepstakes drawings are these state-of-the-art devices:

• Smart power strips that automatically shut off power when a central device is idle — like the computer in your home office or the TV in your entertainment center. As part of the sweepstakes, we are giving away Embertec Advanced Power Strips (valued at $99 each).
• Smart thermostats that can be programmed to automatically adjust your home’s temperature, and controlled remotely via your smart phone. As part of the sweepstakes, we are giving away Nest thermostats (valued at $249 each).
• Digital assistants that can communicate wirelessly with other smart devices at your home and respond to voice commands to turn on or off. As part of the sweepstakes, we are giving away the Google Home digital assistant (valued at $129 each).

Increasing your chances of winning

There are several ways for you to increase your chances of winning the sweepstakes:
