Ours was crazy! Having the house feel like a refrigerator is definitely worth it though!

I can only imagine what ours is going to be - we haven't shut ours off since June Chat Icon

I'm almost 9 months pregnant and live on the top floor of a 4 floor walk up...walking into a freezing cold apartment is PURE HEAVEN after those stairs.

We got our bill on Friday and it wasn't that bad. A little higher than previous months, but only by $50.

My A/C has not been turned off in a few weeks. It is at 60 degrees when I am home. It is going to be bad but I am nine months pregnant so comfort is worth every penny

My balance billing this year was $130 and the last 2 months are $185. I just got my bill and I am ahead by $87 and have one more month to go before the new year starts.

Mine doubled from last month. This is our first summer in the house, and the first time ever having central a/c.

I'm glad DH opened this month's bill. He usually doesn't pay attention!

Ours was $400! Chat Icon Yikes, but we have CAC and I have been home all Summer on maternity leave so it's been on ALL DAY LONG, which is unusual since we're usually both at work all the time. Oh well, time to sign up for the balanced billing plan!Chat Icon

Re: Anyone else afraid to see their electric bill this month?

I got mine today - $409. In the 4 years we've lived here, it's NEVER been that high. Never even more than $200. But my in-law's live with us now and have the ac window unit on 24 hours a day and a 55" tv on all day long too - not to mention every other light in the house on. Plus, we've been running the ac ALOT in this heat.
