I have already limited central heating to 22 degrees and I shall border up some windows.
Ours is regulalry $850 per quarter. And we have no air con, only 2 people, the 'low energy' bulbs etc. I have started turning off the hot water system (not off peak, too old and land lord won't replace while it is still working) except for 3-4 hours a day, and we got a newish (3yrs old) second hand fridge/freezer to replace a 12 yr old set of fridge & freezer. Now it will be interesting to see if there is a diufference next bill. We pay $75 per week via Bpay just to keep up with it.
