Our home is three bedrooms, two baths, with no kids at home and we eat out except on the weekends. Our electric bill was $96 this month excluding water, sewage, and garbage pickup. How did we do it?
We unplug everything that is not being used, cable boxes, TVs, radios, clocks, stereos, etc. Then our flat screen TV, WII, DVD player are plugged into a surge protector that is cut off at night and anytime we leave the house, stopping these items from using any electricity while we are away. At night we use an electric fan for noise and slight breeze, which keeps us cool, thus cutting back on the central unit. Does the forum members know of any other ways to save on electricity, without spending a fortune on solar?
