Re: Unplugging things- how much does it really save?
I think it might depend on what you unplug, a microwave doesn't use much, niether does anything else, but all together...
I estimate a couple bucks a month, but... It is actually more, if the computer has to be power stripped on and off then it is often off, and I often do not go turn it back on for a second round if I only have 15 minutes, so the reduced use helps me think before I use power. End result is a lower electricity bill than anyone I know (avg 30 non summer air months, 50 in july and august for air)
