Your bills are also dependant on the size of your house and how many people live there .... I have a bungalow that is 2500sq ft on the main floor and about another 1700 or 1800 in the lower level daycare .... There is also 5 people living here. Our hydro is anywhere between $150 and $200 per month and we have a propane furnace and hot water heater and stove and its about $100 -$140/month .... I also Try to only run laundry and the dish washer in the evening but it is a lot if laundry and dishes and showers plus we have air conditioning in the summer and I keep the thermostat at 22 in the winter plus we have a very energy efficient house.
