To A/C or not to A/C that is the question?????????

Wow Brooke, $450 a month in the summer is harsh! I complain heavily if my bill goes past $300 in the dead of winter. My summertime bills with the AC set to 78 are usually around $80 for gas and electric (1800 sq. ft.). Is electricity really that much more expensive in Cali?
Brookenstein:
Yes, electricity is more here, but there are a few other factors like I'm a drug dealer like the mom on Weeds, I just grow it in my house... :) no just kidding. I am a stay home mom, so the tv is on, the lights are on, etc. all day where as people who go to work don't have anything on during the day. We also have a couple pc's, tv's, etc. The house is very poorly insulated and has old windows.
My bill I just got has me paying avg .21 kwh. It will go up during summer months when I'm over baseline more. My last bill was $245. I have gas heat, stove, dryer. During winter we use about 1100kwh, during summer about 1600 kwh.
Last July my bill was $428.96. If I call right now and switch to the level pay plan I will pay $296mo. I will probably do that before I get the expensive summer bills. It'll be hard to cough up the extra $200 mo for 3-4 straight months.

We're on the 'level pay plan' with all of our utilities and it does make life easier during the peak months, however, you get a bit peeved when you're paying the level amount during the 'slow' months. :(
Give it a try, you may even get a rebate at the end of the billing period-we always tell them to keep it and apply it to the next cycle.
:D
