How much is your Electric Bill?

[greenfamilyfarms]

So, our bill is about average then.

Mine usually runs $250-300... but its been WAY higher before..due to running lights and heaters for my critters outside in the wintertime...

Our whole house runs on Electric and in the winter it's a killer! We pay about $250 in the winter months and about $175 in the summer months and that's if we don't run the air conditioner!

Last summer, ours was $300+/month, but we found out at the end of the summer it was because the air conditioner wasn't running right. We got that fixed, and now we're paying 60-70/month.

Right now with all the brooder lights outside and in, and the bator running it was just over $100. Dead heat of summer it still stays under $200. Now propane in the winter is a whole other Oprah.

In my old apartment, I ONLY ran fans. The AC unit was a joke. I was usually at $20. Here, a $75.00 bill is fairly normal, with $40 being a good deal!

We run about $110 per month - I use the dryer, dishwasher and the water heater is electric too. If I run the AC (for the dogs) then it jumps around $130 or 140. I'm not complaining but don't get me started on property and school tax - that's where I go off!

Dang! Where do all you people live!!! My bill has NEVER been that cheap....

In the wintertime, Im usually under $100, around $70-$80 a month. Rarely run heat, and can open the windows a lot. Summertime, I run the A/C. I hate being hot, so Ill pay what I need to. During a really really hot month, its gotten as high as $180, but generally is around $130-150. Im very careful about turning lights out, and first thing in the morning Ill turn off the a/c and open windows, if its cool enough and the humidity isnt a killer, until the afternoon, when I close up shop and turn on the a/c.
