My heat stays on 60 through the bulk of the winter. (The exception is on holidays, or if I am having company).

I know, I know...most people think that it's crazy, but it serves multiple purposes...

...it saves money on utilities

...it encourages me to workout on my treadmill in the morning (I know that will warm me up!).

...It encourages me to do more around the house (if I keep moving, I keep warm)

Re: How Low Do You Go........

When I'm wearing two layers and I'm still cold it's time to turn on the heat. When I have five blankets and the heated blanket doesn't keep me warm it's time to turn the heat on. When I get my electric bill it's time to turn the heat OFF.

If it was up to me, I'd set the thermostat at 50.

(It's not up to me. )

We had 8 inches of snow last year, 3 days in one week (absolutely NEVER HEARD OF where I was...lol) and it didn't get that cold inside my apartment. lol It was also staying below freezing that entire week (again, never happens there). I really, really doubt it's going to be that cool in my apartment here.
