Just wondered if anyone else has had this kind of shock this year?????

We have propane, and it costs about $550 every 6-7 weeks...(plus electric and water). (Only during the winter months...it's minimal in the spring/summer/fall, but of course electric goes up then, to cool the house.)
We keep our heat set on 67-68.
(So I guess our utilities run about $550 a month, in the summer and winter...when we use more gas/electric for heat and air). I like it in the spring and fall when we don't have to use much heat/air either way, and can just open the windows!!! Much nicer, AND lower bills.
We try to get everything on level-pay, whenever possible...that way, we know every month what the bill will be, and there are no surprises. (Except at the end of the year, when you may owe a balance.)
