air drying

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

Hello again.....I have been doing an experiment.  Long time overdue, but better late than never-right???  I have been air drying everything (laundry) except blue jeans, wash clothes - kitchen/bath, and under garments.  Wal-Mart offers an air drying rack for approximately $15....   So we received our electric bill this month, and yes we are on budget billing, and our bill was different by $40 each month.  HOW EXCITING!!!!!  I have ran my dryer maybe 3 times this past week.  The savings alone is nice, but knowing that I helping that little bit more with the environment....is even more exciting.

I actually went and bought a few surge protectors and plugged everything I could into them. At night, or when best suited, I turn off the power strip. No need to unplug everything just to plug it all back in the next day. OUR ELECTRIC BILL WENT DOWN almost $40.00. I didnt believe it until I saw it myself on MY electric bill. The surge protectors paid for themselves in the first month!
