Do you want to save money without leaving the house? Unplug it; TV’s and electronics use power even when they’re turned off. Your family could save one hundred dollars a year, just by using smart power strips. Try lowering the temperature on your water heater by ten degrees; you can save five percent on energy costs. Here’s a great money saver; when the weather gets cool, reverse your ceiling fan. By revolving it clockwise, your fan pulls up cool air and sends down the warmer air that’s settled near the ceiling.
