$5 Amazon Gift Card Winner

Hello Fans, Friends, and Family!

I really quickly wanted to announce the winner of the $5 Amazon Gift Card GIVEAWAY!

The winner is my friend Autumn! Yay! Congratulations Autumn! I’ll be sending the e-card your way shortly!

There were *SO* many great responses.   I’ve been away all day and am really longing some family time before the kids go to bed, so I’ll real quickly sum up the tips I received:

*Try not to run the air as much as possible

*Don’t use lights unless it’s dark outside! And then we usually only use enough to see.

*When we are putting things away after meals, we try to gather all refrigerator items, so we only have to open the fridge once.

*Clean your air conditioner yearly and change the filter monthly.

*Use quilted window curtains.

*Turn the Heat down in winter.

*Set air hotter in summer and use your fan on slow or medium.

*Keep curtains on sun side of house closed.

*If the humidity isn’t too high, once the temp drops in the evening, turn off the air and use fan on low.

Here was my favorite tip of all:

HAHAHA! I wonder who wrote that one… hmm 😉 I love my mom!

Thank you to all who entered! I look forward to hosting another giveaway in the future.
