Holy shit! I have a 2300sq foot house and my bills are half that.

Goddamn, thank god heat is included in my rent! I pay my own electric bill, but it's only 40-50 bucks a month.

And +1 on the big sweaters. One of the residents where I work just gave me a beautiful hand knitted wool sweater with leather buttons on it! It's so fucking awesome, I love it! It's vintage, too!

Nothing beats hand made shit.

Welp, I totally screwed up the first window I did, but luckily bought enough to sacrifice at least one - so now I've got a the living rooms windows set, and I just need to blow dry the three smaller ones.

The only thing that seems to take a lot of time is blow drying the film - otherwise, no fuss, no muss (though double sided tape can fuck right off).

lucky. our first bill was $98. then $108. then winter raped us.

paying for gas & electric is definitely one of the negative aspects of living where we live (street parking & shoveling in winter are the other ones), but the positive aspects make up for it. it is hard to get used to though, since i always lived in smaller complex-style apartments where heat was always free and i never paid more than $50 for an electric bill.

Sig material.

Get some thin foam strips from Home Depot and stuff them in the cracks where cold air is getting in. I don't know what they're called..but they are the same type of material that is on the tips of earphones.

It's cheap and works good.

Don't feel bad. We almost exclusively use electric heat, and during really cold spells our bill has been as high as $290. Keep in mind, though, that there are two units: one for the upstairs, one for the downstairs. I grew up with wood heat, and I miss not having it in our current home. My goal is to end up in a house with wood heat again before I die.

Also, I am sorry that in no way was any of the above useful.

hey babe - regarding Vinnie's idea about putting a curtain in our front entrance, you should measure the width of that frame and compare it to the width of the shower curtain rod. if they're roughly the same size i think we could get away with hanging a curtain on a nice-looking shower rod up there to avoid drilling into the wood.

Zoso - wtf is wood heat?
