    it makes me feel sick looking at a bill like that! I had a look at their charting and our usage has almost doubled...we are in a bigger house but we only have us and Hayley. I know they keep jacking prices up, but our bills seem to be growing exponentially. Candles and kero lamps anyone?!

    Tinks- our last bill was a bit over $600, but I don't think we had the ducted running at all because the house stays really cool in summer without air conditioning (that was for Feb-April)

    Ours have been over $600 a quater lately. Not looking forward to the next one, since we've been using a heater & fire.
    But we have our hot water heating twice a day, so I know exactly where ours is going.

    Ouch!! Hopefully it makes your DH think a little more about the power he uses

    We jsut need some clear sunny skies as we jsut aren't generating as much power atm as we need to and we have a big solar system
