We have 2800 sf... Our's was $150. I must admit we don't keep it cold enough to hang meat, but it's comfortable. We have 2 units, so it's zoned. But I'm like you @Ray... I feared the bill!! 4951

We keep it at 76 during the day and 74 at night and it was $143 this month and $131 last month. Considering it was this houses 1st ever electric bill I was terrified to open it. 4951

Balanced billing.... $89.00 per month all year round.  Most it has ever been was $116.00 two years ago.  I keep it comfortable but there is only one person in my house. 4951

I'm embarrassed. Mine was 223 and I only have a 1500 sf house, 1yo AC, extra insulation and a brand new roof. Maybe I have an energy leak...
Seriously, TXU, you must enjoy screwing me. At least you could send me flowers when you're done. Sheesh! I'll be on Power to choose in the morning tomorrow. 4951

@herron1345: I'm with Green Mountain Energy. I keep it set at 76 and it still feels too cold in here.My son Austin is doing great in school. So far he loves it. Maybe because he has a hot, young teacher. Today is his 7th birthday.Nash is awesome. He's my bud. Took him for a nice, long walk last night that I thought would wear him out. But after we got home I found him at the top of the stairs still wanting to play.

I am hoping moving from a 2500sq ft 2 story to a 1500sq ft 1 story will mean our bills will be lower. 4951

@WskyTngoFxtrt:
 
Nash's tail must've been wagging 90mph in that last picture! That's a handsome fella you got there. So glad he's able to run and play without having to worry about heart worms. 4951

Just had.our evaporator coil replaced for the 3RD TIME! We would have our ac set at 77 and it could never catch up. Hopefully now it'll be lower. 4951
