Our last bill was $355 and it will be higher this month. I heard that all the remote electronics use a fair amount of power because they are constantly reading the remote control. We don't manage electricity usage very well. We have talked about it - does that count? I turn the temp up on workdays and way down when home. I leave a radio or TV on for the doggies. Hubby and I both take two showers per day. We're all electric (2100sf) with a heat pump system (3yo), double insulation. Our frig is 22yo. One water heater is 22yo and one is new last year. We use ceiling fans in most rooms. We have an extra full size frig, a counter top frig, a 7yo freezer, and a 20yo freezer in the garage.

Things to cut:
TV/Radio for doggies
1 daily shower
sleep warmer
turn computers off
unplug or turn off extra clocks, VCRs, DVD players, printers
sale a freezer
sale extra refrigerator
