Trying not to use the A/C

June 7th, 2008 at 10:14 pm

Even though it is very hot/humid here--93 degrees--I do not want to turn on the A/C. I have a whole house fan which is on and I have the windows open with the mini-blinds closed.

I got a refund check in the mail for $3.69 for Land O Lakes Butter and I had another NSD. I will add the check to my savings.

I did some yard work earlier and now I'm going to see how much money I spent this week, since this is the first week I have actually tracked all of my expenses.

    Oh, it is so humid here I don't know if I could do what you are doing. I guess with a fan, shorts, and a cool drink and doing NOTHING, I could get by. Great job keeping the costs down!

    Amazing! It was over 95 and humid here. The air quality was terrible. The haze made driving interesting in some areas. I just can't imagine no a/c on a day like today.

    We are also trying to not use the A/C. The weather in D.C. was over 97 and very humid yesterday! The forecast for the next few days are to be the same. So far with all of the ceiling fans on, windows opened and the blinds closed it was comfortable. We are trying to set a house record for the summer to keep the AC off. Last year we turned on the AC for 12 days in July/August.
