My roommate and I do a few things to try and save on the heating bill. We seal most of our windows but still leave a few open to open during the days when it gets near the 80's, to warm the house. We also let the sunlight in during the day. Since I work nights, I am up alot during the night, so I do most of our cooking late in the evening or at night on the nights I am off. My roommates room is right off the kitchen. Cooking helps warm his side of the house quite a bit. I have a heating blanket on my bed and my roommate has a heater built into his water bed. We keep the heat around 67 degrees.
