My recent (read/not estimated) bill for November when it wasn't even that cold and I didn't turn on the furnace until 11/23 was......$557.00!!!
We have ALL new windows, an energy-efficient furnace, a new front storm door, a new garage door and new door from garage into the house.
Admittedly, it's a larger home, but $557.00???!!! Can't even begin to imagine what it's going to be for December and January!
$557??????
Man, I feel for you this winter. I might be wise for you to use kerosene or electric space heaters.
Hunker down and get an extra blanket
