Did you know that you can save on your electric bill just by unplugging things when your not using them? Even if something is tuned *off*, it still uses 40% of its energy if it's plugged in! I read a report about this recently and checked with my electrician friend. He verified that this is true! So I have unplugged everything I could....lamps that we don't really use, cell phone charger, coffee pot, etc... hope to see some improvement in my electric bill next month. Every little bit will help get to my goal!!

just so you know that helps with things that have an "instant on" like a television, because it is constantly drawing energy, it won't help with a lamp because the circuit is closed.
Good luck with your cause hope you don't mind me poking around your blog getting ideas!
