from Con Ed.

you can get reimbursed up to $150 for lost goods-no receipt needed.

Con Ed isn't honoring these claims, it's not a hoax but they recinded on everything because they weren't responsible for the black out. It was on Ask Asa last night....

It's only good for losses incurred by customers based on problems in their local distribution system, to which the blackout cannot be attributed, and for which they are not giving any money.

Re: I got a form for those who lost goods in the blackout

We were in Florida when it happened, and luckily didn't have much in the fridge. The freezer was packed, which was helpful, and for the most part, everything is fine. We threw out the milk and dairy products in the fridge (although the milk smelled 100% fine) and threw out the shrimp in the freezer, just in case. If you didn't open your fridge or freezer, chances are, the food didn't spoil. I wouldn't throw everything out - just the things that have expiration dates to begin with.
