If you can add a wood burning stove to your home you can drasticly reduce your heating bill. I'm furtunate enough to come across wood all year through my job, it can be a lot of work but well worth it. Our home is a tri-level style home with the bedroom upstairs our stove puts out enough heat that leaveing the bedrooms open is enough and the furnance rarely comes on. Granted we'd had a mild winter so far our gas bill has been under $125 last month. Wood isn't just for plugs ya know.

My gas meter is read over the phone lines via a modem they installed right to the meter a few years ago. No more estimated readings.
