Have a 15 year old fridge? It could be costing you twice as much a year to run than a newer model. <BR/><BR/>Also, if you have DTE energy, call them up and ask that your energy consumption is offset by renewable energy sources such as wind, geothermal and hydro. It's only a few extra bucks a month, but it makes me feel better knowing I'm not burning coal.<BR/><BR/>July bill 2004: $228<BR/><BR/>What I paid this July: $76Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02876860243053889114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9902677.post-651222572147000842007-08-17T13:43:00.000-04:002007-08-17T13:43:00.000-04:00The husband in my current bradley class is the ass...The husband in my current bradley class is the assitant manager at the starbucks at somerset. he said that they use the most plastic cups when they give away free water to mall employees. He personally has started to ask each person to bring in a cup or bring back their original cup for a refill to save on waste.

Downtown living is so much more FUN. However, downtown living HERE isn't. Which is why I live where I do.<BR/><BR/>I knew there was a reason I didn't go to Starbucks!
