Pre-LO, we hardly used our heater and would just wear extra layers or use a space heater to save on our electricity bill. I think we typically paid about $100. Post-LO, our winter electricity bill was almost $180!

We live in a very open plan house. Our windows are drafty and we have radiators. It's ridiculous.

At most $60. Our winters are not very cold and we live in a small space.

I'm not sure yet, I'm really nervous though. I know my mom pays like 200-300 in the bad months. I think the worst for her one month was almost $400......that's what we get for living in WI!

Our winter heating costs are between $150-$250 a MONTH for every month between November and April. And we only keep the house at 68 or below. It sucks. (that's for gas heat, the electricity bill is another $100+ a month, every month).

We live in an apartment and last winter our most expensive gas and electricity bill was about $35. I know it'll go up a bit when LO is here, but there are times I'm so thankful for apartment living.

Electricity is usually around $40-$50. Our heating oil costs... are just to painful to talk about.

Oh yeah, I should clarify that the bulk of our winter bill is for gas, not actually electric.

Oh man, I thought my 150$/mo in winter was good! We've only been in the house since January, but from Jan-June the bill (electricity, sewage, water) was under 200$, then it jumped up with the heat. I can't wait til it goes back down again!

Oh I forgot too our Utility bill is for Heat and Electricity too. So it's just combined, I don't even know what the charges are seperately

Used to be ridiculous because of Christmas lights and keeping our outdoor hot tub on... this year we shut down the hot tub so it should be a lot less.
We did go on the budget plan though, so right now it's $200/month year round. I expect a refund check in May.
