Actually, I was rather upset with myself because last months kilowatt usage was 183. I am single, and use a fan rather than an air conditioner. I do have fluorescent bulbs in most of the lamps throughout the house, and work during the day Mon-Fri - so am not using electricity then. I did buy a highly rated Energy Saver refrigerator several years back, which probably cut my electric bill in half from the nearly 30 year old frig that I had previously. Ditto Energy Saver washing machine, and I line dry all my laundry. On the bad side, I do leave my television on all night while I sleep.

Oh, I do occasionally cook, but not really that often, and use the microwave.

The rate here is 6.7 cents for the first 200 kws and 7.8 cents over 200.
