I try to minimize any changes in my electric bills. So I close shades and curtains to block out the sun and keep my thermostat at 77* in the summer. I run the dishwasher in the late evening and do laundry in the mornings.

I'm 86 years old and need the a/c on. Have it set so it is 78 in my apartment. Can't get out in the heat.

I keep the blinds/drapes pulled. Turn up the AC a few notches during the day while at work. Small steps to help the utility bill.

Everyone should look up operation Popeye that has to do with the weather.

I try to watch the AC usage to keep the electric bill as low as possible
