i know some girls on the island have something else. But for those who use con ed, cant say use bc in the 5 boroughs you have no choice as to who to use lol. But have you noticed the increase in the bill i was even shocked, my bill was in the mid 300's for the month of july not too far from $400 i spoke to someone else and they said their bill for july was also in the $300's and told me that con ed prices went up 20%. This is just ridiculous.

Now of course in the summer you always expect your bill to be higher, but it used to be in the $200's, now its just ridiculous.

Do you keep the AC on all day and night? Or is someone home all day that may leave that or other things on?

no i dont, during the day its off...but the thing is that con ed increased prices by 20%. Unfortunately it was a real hot summer so had no choice but to have the AC on alot. Summers its always high and i know this from previous years, but in the 200's range not close to $400 that is a bit too much. Even if you left your ac on all day before the increase it wouldn't be $400.

I hate the ac on too much so during the day i keep it off and open all the windows. I dont leave all the lights on, infact i always feel if youre not in a room then dont keep the light on so during the day only one room has a light on. Even more recently at night when it gets a bit cooler i turn the ac off and open the windows. And at night ive been keeping it on low instead of high when i do have it on. And not like i keep a ton of AC's on at once. From the previous bill its not like we've used it anymore its been the same usage. When dh isnt home i have the AC off even at night...many times he has softball after work about 3-4 days a week and gets home at 11pm and ill have the AC most of the day and just turn it on when he gets home
