As I mentioned in last Friday's post, our electric bill has been less than it was a year ago since February. After reading about it, my husband asked if the difference each month was about the same, so I got curious about the same thing and what the overall total difference is:
February 2011: $167.67
February 2012: $154.66
Difference: $13.01
March 2011: $110.34
March 2012: $105.50
Difference: $4.84
April 2011: $99.56
April 2012: $65.46
Difference: $34.10
May 2011: $125.07
May 2012: $71.08
Difference: $53.99
June 2011: $128.07
June 2012: $113.97
Difference: $14.10
July 2011: $144.71
July 2012: $129.16
Difference: $15.58
Year-over-year difference so far: $135.62.
I realize that the bulk of the difference could be attributed to a number of variable -- the weather this year compared to last, the rate the electric company is charging us, etc. But, because it is consistently lower, I think the changes we've made do factor in some.
I feel good!
