last month my bill for usage was 120$, the "fuel adjustment" was 270$

i'd hate to see what my adjustment woulda been had I actually used any natural gas, i'm 100% electric here

150$/month for electricity?? God damn! Do you have a heated pool or something? My bill is around 40$. (and I leave the lights/stuff on all the time)

I replaced all the bulbs in my house to the flourescent bulbs and it not only cut down the electric bill a little but they dont get NEAR as hot as the regular bulbs. Especially if you have a row of 8 bulbs in your bathroom like mine. Better light to IMO...

Each room I have ceiling fans and i replaced all of the bulbs in those with Halogens

Each bulb was 75 watt before the Flourescents are 12 watts each. 3 bulbs per fixture for a total of 36 watts instead of 225.

**EroticySteve** · 11-14-2005, 10:03 AM

If all of the lights are on with incandescent bulbs I was using 1350 watts for lighting

Now I have it at 216 watts to light the entire house.

**Babagirls** · 11-14-2005, 10:05 AM

i never have lights on during the day (just open the blinds) and if its cold in here, i turn the heater on for an hour or two then shut it off.
<<---cheap ass lol

Fuck, my place is small and my juice always runs around 200 bucks. I like the A/C though.

I would kill to have a $150 electric bill let alone a $65 one. My bills run about $300 to $400 a month. The price I pay for living in the desert where the AC runs non-stop almost year round.

**Gottis** · 11-14-2005, 10:42 AM

Same shit in Vegas, water and electric bills el grande

I switched to pretty much all those, and my bill is half what it used to be. Nice saving money doing nothing.

**EroticySteve** · 11-14-2005, 11:31 AM

Oh and the Flourescents also last for years. I have owned my Flourescents for a few years. I had them at my old house and many of them I got from a friend. Some of them are going on 5+years now.

I used to live up north and my gas and electric combined were about that much. My bills could easily be over $200 a month here but I am very good about conservation. The money I save pays for a tank of gas and my cell phone bill.

**pornguy** · 11-14-2005, 11:33 AM

I get my bill here every two months. the last bill was for 800

PESOS!

so about 76$ for the two months period.

**sexxxydesign.com** · 11-14-2005, 11:38 AM

LOL pornguy.. what kind of pesos? chilean? urugayan? argentinian?mexican? or others? my last bill was 180 pesos but i had the ac on the whole month (arround 61 dollars)

**Drake** · 11-14-2005, 11:47 AM

Even if I used no electricity I'd be charged maintenance fees.

**EroticySteve** · 11-14-2005, 11:59 AM

The next thing I'm going to do is update my attic insulation and replace the doors and windows. That should also help.

**Furious_Female** · 11-14-2005, 12:31 PM

Lucky... ours is $400-500 every month

Even with oil heat, gas stove, and gas dryer
