you can see on my gas bill the price jumped mid billing from 7 cents to 9 cents, it's supposed to go up to 12 cents for october..fortunately alberta is reimbursing everyone $400 cash to off set it plus they'll be giving rebates if the price goes over 12 cents starting november.
I thought my power bill would be higher, but I've switched nearly all the lighting in the house now to fluoresents, turned the fridge down as much as possible. For the gas, I've turned the water heater way down, still good for a shower

As a public authority, LIPA owns the electricity system serving 1.2 million customers on Long Island and the Rockaways.
Keyspan- Natural gas supplier
The natural gas bill is $12 per month on the budget plan.
Only the dryer and the back-up second stove uses this fuel.
of that charge $7 is for th eprivilegs of hvign th serice and a meter. The balance is usage.
To run a dryer electrically here:
consumption (avg) 2.5 KWH
KWH charge $0.18
------------------------------
TOTAL is $0.45 per load
so say $.050 (half a dollar.)
6 loads per week X 4.33 weeks per month = 25 loads per month.
25/2 = $12.50
Cost works out the same for me with either energy source.
BUT if I had antoher gas using appliance, the meter charge(fixed cost) would be relatively, and gas would therefore be much cheaper than electric.

Fuel oil
The 12 month budget payment is $177
or $2,125 for the year.
divided by a 7 month heating season, that becomes $300 per month for heat. (ignoring hot water costs).
The house is a 1,200 square foot cape-cod. (read: small)
$2,125 per year @ $2.25 per gallon implies a usage of : 950gallons per year.

32 days
1164 kWh
$118.76 total bill
when you subtract out the $7 monthly cust charge it comes to about 9.5 cents kWh
BTW my gas bill last winter averaged $150/ month, about $40 in non heat months.
home heat, water heat, and dryer are natural gas
Toggle, now we see why you say "fundsRlow" (I know you spelled it different than that but I'm to lazy to go back and look)

Talk about your sticker shock.....here is the bill that I just paid for 8/21-9/21/05:
Electric: KWH used 4543 $436.38
Gas: $ 65.09
We have two central a/c units, 3 window units (sheds and sunroom) and our hot water heater and dryer are gas.
If my utilities continue to skyrocket like this, I'm going to have to swap out the Tide with Bleach for Brand X! OY!

OMG!
Wow, I'm going to quit b***hing about mine. I have 2100 sqft, 2 central units, all electric. The water heater and downstairs furnace are original to the house (1968), the furnace is a "Singer" using the same script as the sewing machines. The highest bill I've had in 8 years of living there has been $298. It averages between $100-$200. My water bill is usually between $30-$40, and that includes sanitation pickup.
Thanks for the reality check.
