Problem: Old Thermostat

The problem here is in your rush to get out the door every morning, you forget to turn down the thermostat, thus keeping your furniture and goldfish nice and cozy while you are away. Ditto for when you go to bed at night and layer on the blankets.The Fix: Install a programable thermostat to remember for you. Set the temps for 65-70 degrees at times when you're home, then lower to around 58 degrees at night or when you're away. More money saving tips.
