cheap cheap cheap!!!

Mine was $28.10, and as winter wears on it will probably go lower.
I have fluorescent bulbs all over the house, they make a BIG difference.

I've had electric bills as low as $15 in the middle of winter.

Toggle says:

His electric bill is $142 every month for 12 months. His fuel/oil bill is $188 per month for 12 months. The dryer uses gas which is $12 per month. Electric includes most cooking and central air. Fuel oil includes heat and hot water. The gas is almost exclusively for the dryer with a touch of gas cooking.

I have an all electic house save for the electric heat pump for central heating.
My basement is supplemented with a heavy duty fan-forced electric resitance wall-mounted heater.

 

[gadgetgary]

How do you heat your house if not for electric?

Thanks to my handy dandy toggleswitch, we have not turned on the supplemental electric resitance heat coils in the main system yet.

Toggleswitch~

I need me a Toggleswitch here at my house!!..

Unfortunately, when it comes to things such as this, my other half and I are both clueless.
Thank God I have Andrewinorlando nearby, I would really be up shit's creek if I didn't (lol). That boy know's everything!

I love me a toggleswitch!!

Hugs to you both!

Gee Whiz yall have high bills

My electricity was $71 dollahz.
I went with Cirro Engegy out of Dallas.
Best move I made.
12 cents a KWH.

Gas is only about 20 a month. High end would be around 60. (After it gets a little colder here)

I have gas water heater and stove.
Stove is a POS so I don't cook much.

Gawd I can't wait to move out here. These bills will change dramatically once I buy a house.

Our electric bill is bi-monthly so I don't think the next one is till after 31st December.

Billing period 10/29-11/29
667 kwh
$99.31
That works out to be 14.89 cents/kwh

What's up with this!! Carol, I've got Cirro, have had them for 18 months. You musta got one of those super duper rates where ya commit for like 3 years (like effective january 1 of this year).

 

[DADoES]

Carol -- the local county electric cooperative. They get power from four plants using lignite, natural gas, diesel, and hydro. The primary is a lignite-fired facility near SA. Winter rates are low, summer rates higher. I don't have anything natural gas or propane, and the electric includes water and sewer via power to run the water well & septic system. Both air conditioning and heating were used during the period, but not much of either.

Here's my outdoor temp sensor to kill the auxiliary, and the lock-out setpoint.

October and November were unusually warm, so my bill was pre

p.s. For those of you who haven't heard me kvetch about my power bills in the past, I have an All-Electric Home. A big one.

In Wisconsin.

hhmmm

Last year, it was 36.60 this month. This year, 49.99... I used 409 kWh.

This is a 1 bedroom apartment with a gas stove and no washer or drier (yet)! I do now have a dishwasher that I use every other day, and didn't last year. I like the thermostat set on 72. I think it was much colder by this time last year so I didn't use the A/C as much.

My lowest bill was last Jan or Feb... it was $26.06! I was shocked.

I do have compact flourescent lights most lamps. I haven't noticed a difference with them, but I don't think they will make that much of a difference with such a small place.

 

[Maytagmom]

Bob, I can only commit for a year at a time....

Which is why I can't stand marriage, I get bored too easily, LOL

I signed up 45 days before Direct Energy jacked up the rates again. I think back in April. Wanted to save as much as I could. I knew that POS place I live in gets hot as an oven if you don't continually run the AC. (And I had a new puppy, so she defineately wasn't going to be a cooked chi-weenie while I was at work. LOL

So the spoilt little bitch stayed in the cool AC during the day while mommy was at work, and I paid for it. Is that love or what?

After buying 1 window unit to cool the entire place off, (because the Central AC is a POS too)...I saved $100 on my next billing cycle.

Now after a year, I will probably loose that 12 cents KWH, which is about the cheapest you can find here in the Houston area. I will shop around again. And switch again if I can find a cheaper rate.

IMHO, I think all the energy companies are crooks...along with my landlord, Ms. Hitler.

Sorry for the rant...

PS: Happy Holidays Glenn & Bob...miss ya'll~

Math is hard!

I work for the power company, but I get very confused by our billing process. In the winter, we charge 3.76¢ per kWh for the first 16 kWh per day and 7.93¢ per kWh for all additional kWh per day. We used 2178 kwh over the 59 day billing cycle.

How they figure that I don't know. I just pay the bill when it comes in. But that's one a budget billing, so we pay a flat 112.00 every two months.
