And yet I’d be good if my electric bill wasn’t $350

Mine was the same. It's amazing how much it costs to keep a small house at a livable temperature when it's blazing hot outside

House? HOUSE?!?! I’m in a 1 bedroom apartment!!!!

There must be something really wrong then, like no insulation at all, or improper grounding. $350/mo for one bedroom apartment electric bill is insane.

Last time I was in a studio apartment it was like $70/mo. In a 3 bedroom house I'm in right now it's around $120-150/mo currently.

10.9 cents supply, 16.9 cents delivery. A very old air conditioner running constantly during a 2 week heat wave. Also I work from home.
