Recently, I read of a way to save roughly $200 a year on your electric bill. It's as simple as unplugging appliances when not in use. Things such as TV's, radios, computers, coffee makers, and just about anything else draw a surprising amount of power even when turned off. Rather than manually unplugging each appliance, the easiest method is to turn off the switch to your power surge suppressor. Don't have one? You should. We blew out a TV during a lightning storm by not having it plugged into one. If you already turn off the lights when you leave a room, this is one more way to save money and help save the planet!
