Back on topic, I have only baseboard heating in my condo, about 740 sq ft. I'm not on the budget plan, and last month my electric bill was $38.

But in January/February, my bill was $150 or so each month, and I kept my place around 65, and didn't turn the heat on in my room because I like it cold in there. And in my living room, I only have one baseboard heater, usually full blast in the winter, that's the only thing that heated my place. Cost me about $4 per day for that thing to be on.

However, I live in building made in late 1800s, I have virtually no modern insulation. That would probably cut my bill in half in the winter.
