Cut Down On Costs With Power Strips

This next statistic is pretty surprising, but some estimates say that most appliances in your home use 75% of their energy when they're not even in use. In other words, all of those appliances that are plugged in but not in use at the moment, such as your T.V. use most of their energy when you're not using them. To combat this, try plugging al of them into a power strip.

Don't overload a single strip, but do install a lot of them around your home, and make sure to turn them off when you don't need an appliance like a lamp or T.V.
