Another way to cut down on your power bill from your fridge is to keep things in it! The more mass in your fridge the cooler it stays and doesn't need to click on as often. So, fill it up with your reusable bottles of water! Same goes for the freezer! It's a great way to prepare for hurricane season as well! (if you live in coastal area). Freeze big jugs of water.

I dont have a dryer (yaaay!!) so I always air dry my clothes. And because I hang them in the roof its always a good excersise to go unhanging them. The only problem its when it rains, but im sure we can wait 1 or 2 days :)

Yes, and you will find that in summer, it doesn't take any longer to air dry outside! (In Alabama in July, it's often quicker to dry stuff outside!) @nice_and_shiny - try the 5 mins in the dryer *before* you hang them on the line and the wrinkles won't get dried into the clothes. It's much easier to get the wrinkles out when they're wet, and it makes them less stiff (no crunchy jeans or towels!). SO: when you're switching out clothes in the washer, put load #1 in the dryer and turn on. Then start setting up load #2. By the time you check all the pockets and add the soap to load #2, load #1 is wrinkle free and ready to go to the clothesline. I also keep a wood dowel drying rack around for little things (socks, underwear, cloth napkins - lots of little things are a pain to clothespin on the line!).

I always air dry, but here's a tip: Air dry your clothes outside, then throw them in the dryer for 5 minutes to fluff and get out wrinkles.
