If you live in the sweltering south, one of your primary struggles each summer is to keep your living space reasonably cool. And at this time of year you watch your energy bill shoot through the roof as you’re running your A/C pretty much without stop. Not to mention, everyone’s home from school, using more lights and electricity.

The folks over at Energy Star - yes, the very same people who helped you choose your energy efficient washer and dryer, and fridge and dishwasher too - have a new feature on their website - Energy Star @ Home. It takes you on a room by room tour of your house and tells you how to lower your energy bill. Really, it’s quite helpful. Check it out! Shave a few bucks here and there off your electric bill, and you’ll have some extra funds to put towards your summer vacation!
