Lower your shades each day. Sure, it takes a little effort, but it pays off by reducing heat gain from outside, especially in south-facing and west-facing windows. Choose light-colored shades to most effectively reflect the sunlight, and save energy.

DO LAUNDRY AT NIGHT ON WEEKEND & EVEN ON HOLIDAYS

To save money, you must limit energy used during on-peak hours Monday through Friday.

Wash your laundry after peak hours. Use your washer, dryer, dish washer and any other of your big energy using appliances later at night.  Doing so will save you a good deal of money & energy.  The highest time of day year round is 3pm - 6pm.  July & Aug are the most expensive months the difference in price is huge.  Washing during On- Peak time you can pay as much as 21 cent per kilowatt - hour (kWh) Off - Peak you can pay as low as 7 cent per kilowatt - hour (kWh).  That's a HUGE difference, for sure.  If your still not convinced that this saves money, try it and and check your bills to compare and see the difference.  When I did this test myself a couple years back my savings was HUGE, we saved about $20 a month on average.  I've been doing it that way ever since.  And since I am not a good night sleeper anyway it's easier for me do it at night any how.

Shave Money Off Your Electric Bill

SAVE MONEY ON YOUR ELECTRIC BILL

I found a question on WDSU asking what ways we knew of to save money.

I wanted to share my answer with y'all just encase you too, could learn from my answer.

Use your dish-washer, washer and dryer and even run your air conditioner lower at off peak hours, then during on peak hours turn that air back up to 78 and don't run your others major appliances.  

It really saves a lot. I know first hand, because I was able to knock off over $55 dollars a month from my own bill with this trick. You can call your own electric company to find out what hours are off peak in your area. And check out my blog for other useful money saving tips and lots more daily.
