How much was your gas bill?

And how are you trying to save money?

Well my mom's last bill was $250 for to keep the house warm in Memphis.

We turned ours off most of the time at night or when we leave or during the day... And use our little electric heaters.

I'll bet the northerners wish to live
in southern and warmer states, right?

I can imagine people' gas bill in Maine or Connecticut or Germany or Russia or Canada must be suffering and struggling with high gas bill ($1,000) to keep yallselves warm.
 
no gas bills here at my apartment. Some pay heat by electricity, some by gas. It varies. I pay heat run by electricity.
 
My Grandaunt had to pay $300 last month gas bill.

And my mom's best friend had to pay $1200 because she has a Mansion....
And she lives by herself though.

Oh man, you're lucky.
 
We don't have gas. We have an all-electric home. It costs us about $108 per month for everything.

I learned so much from you guys...
If I am planning to move, I'll search for homes that run on electrical and no gas.
 
the gas bills is only 126.00 per montly not bad which my brother and i pay half share bills
 
My gas bill never more than 8 bucks. Because I've made fat burners to replace the gas burners in the heater. The fat comes free from McDonalds and Burger King fryer oil waste bins.

The 8 bucks is usually from the cooking.

oh that explains.. But, my home situation

last month and this month... That's Strange about
my bill jumped from $50 up to $126 with
everything the same. Scratching my head....
 
I don't have a gas here at my apartment, only all electric. It only cost me 60 to 70 dollars per month, but during summer it costs me about 80 dollars. NOT BAD!
 
for our apt its abt 900 square ft, and this month bills was 134 :jaw: , usually cost us about 60 to 80 a month. and we havent used our fireplace yet, we have to wait until tv says OK'd to use the fireplace, due to high smog in Colorado
 
:shock: compared to electricity n oil, Oil bills higher electricty I have never had Oil before, must oil if they have fireplace any other than Oil for fireplace? just asking :cool:
 
Last month it was 83 dollars here in Southern Calif. I set temp at 68 and off during the night. I am not complaining about it but I am complaining about other bills alike water bills, u should see it last summer my water bill was 250.00 for two months. It varies in each state, some too expensive alike winter gas bill in Northern east states and cheaper in other area but cost more during the summer here compare to other area.
 
My electric bill of $108 includes heating in the winter and AC in the summer (our house is 2100 sq. ft.). Water & sewer together is about $30 per month. We haven't used our wood stove at all this winter because the weather has been so mild. Our electric bill is always the same each month because the electric company averages our cost every year. That way, we never have any surprises when the electric bill comes.
 
Everybody thought that gas would be economical....

So if people start switching from gas to electric....

Then we might have electricity shortage and struggle with high bills.
 
$250 is sooo much.. i notice a huge mistake ur mother made...

she turned off the heat at night.. that's a huge huge mistake cause ur bill go skyrocketed. its best to stay in same temp or 5 degrees difference...

i live in COLD state... yet coldest state in US.. and last month gas bill is just $150.. no biggie!

other thing is.. maybe ur home isn't insulated?
