WARE, Mass. - The annual holiday display at 27 Morse Ave. in Ware is shutting off their inflatables for the season due to rising costs.

Homeowner Bill West said once they got the electric bill, the more than 20 inflatables they have came down right away. West put on a similar display for Halloween back in October, and while the price on that electric bill was higher too, the one this month was much worse. 

"When I got that big light bill, I said see ya later," West said. "I mean, $10 I wouldn't care about, but when it's almost $300 for 15 days? I'll see ya later. I mean, I hated to take them down because you know, everyone loves them. "

The decorations and lights are still up and will stay up through Christmas. West said the display is still on for next year, possibly with the help of some donations.
