I instituted a no electric night.Each and every wednesday when I left for work I turned off all the circuit breakers in my apartment all but the fridg. They stayed off until Thursday am that gave me 24 hours of no electric bill each week. I bough oil lamps and candles we ate cold chicken or ham with fruit and cheese for dinner we played board games and if the kids had school projects they had to go to the libaray or a friends I simply had to cut back . It worked amoung other things but it did help! As a single parent who was found in debt.
