What is your utility bill?

[nile455]

Also, please say how many total people live in your household as well. My utility bill has been astronomical, and I'd like to hear what others pay on average.

Do you mean electricity? Last month ours was $165 per month. 2 adults, a 4 year old and a new baby. 1600 square foot house, oil heat & hot water. We ran 2 air conditioners all month. Without the a/c, it's normally around $125 per month.

2 years ago it was $50-$60 per month but our providers received approval to up their rates and they didn't take long to do it.

That's cheap! Do you live in the dark?? LOL Our house has dimmers on every single light and I always have them dimmed. DH complains that we live in a bat cave!

3000 sf house with inground pool (that is circulating last month 10 hours a day, this month 6 hours a day)--$456 last month and $370 this month, but we were on vacation for a week this month.

Just me

4500 SQF

We range from $9.50 to about $117.00 per month-over 2K sq ft-2 of us. The bills less than 10 are usually in the early spring and fall when neither the heat or A/C is on. Electricity in KY is cheaper than any other state.

I work from home so someone is typically here 20 hours a day.

Nope, we keep thermo at about 75 and DW and DD are home all day so lights, tv are on? We buy from the city so if we were outside city limits it would be cheaper.

There's four of us and we have electric everything. Electric range, clothes dryer, etc! Our July bill was $227. We have a two story colonial just under 2,000 sqf. We've been keeping the thermostat right around 68 degrees since it's been so hot here, most days have been 90 degrees and above.

Wow I needed to add another voting option- over $350!! I had no idea utility bills could be that high.

 

[aprilgail2]

boy none of those options worked if this is for electricity..I don't know anyone wit han electirc bill around here under 170.00!! My friend has three teenage daughters and between the dryer goign and the blow dryers, curling irons etc her electric bill is 750.00 bi-monthly. Mine is only 230 a month but I only have 3 people here and one is only 6.

 

[ilovepcot]

The past few months our electric bill has exceeded $450! This month was $487.23. I'm dreaming of cooler weather. Almost forgot...it's only 2 people in the household.

3 of us. Last month's electric & gas was $260. We run the air conditioner constantly, so we thought this was pretty good.

 

[Pugdog007]

Ours was $255 this month. 2 people, 2700 sf. Gas is separate and it's $93 every month.
