[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 572686, member: 1514"] They told me if I got rid of whole house, kept 3 cable boxes with only one doing dvr then it would be 154 a month. Thats what I am going to do. Billy can figure out how to record his shows on his computer. I am going to tell Billy he is going to have to start kicking in another 50 bucks a month towards the bills because they have just gone up so much. His 150 doesnt even cover food. He comes home at night after we go to bed and we have told him time and again to turn out the lights in the kitchen. We turn them off when we go to bed so he has to turn them back on and it never fails that when either Tony or I get up in the night that the lights are left back on. Sometimes it happens twice! I have gotten up to go out and get drink and turned the lights back off and then I find out the next day that he has gone out and turned them back off too! That means at some point Billy has gotten up between us to either make more food or gotten something to drink and left the lights on. And we do leave one light on in the pantry at all times so you can see enough to get around. I dont even need to turn a light on when I go in the kitchen when I go in there. Just to make a drink I can see well enough from the light from the pantry. My power bill runs over 180 a month at the very least in the winter and goes up to around 300 in the summer.
