Have you turned your heater on yet?
~We haven't yet although temps are down to the low 40's every night.
If it's over 60* in the house in the morning the heat does not go on! It's been 62* every morning so far.
I'm really hoping to hold out until November but I'm feeling my age or something. I do not tolerate the cold well anymore! 62* is feeling like torture.

Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

Ours has been on for a couple weeks. It's set at 20 in the morning and 19 the rest of the day and overnight. It comes on every day at some point.

For the past two mornings we have put it on for a few hours and it keeps the house warm until the next morning. I just can't deal with a house around 60 degrees to cold for me!

Unfortunately, yes

It's been dipping down in the 20s over night. It's currently 36F at almost noon! The house was getting below 59F so we turned it on. It's gonna be a loooong winter.

Heat
No way, no how.........so far even though we have dipped to 32 the inside hasn't gone under what I would have the furnace set at. We are to have a "little" warm up early next week, hoping that holds out, I am used to not having to get the furnace going until late November.....

Yep, I have a sick two year old, so I've been running mine in the morning to get the chill out of the house. I set it at 68 in the morning and 64 at night.

We had to turn ours on when it was -15C outside. I told DH that it either had to snow or be really cold in order for us to turn it on. It's warming up outside today so it'll go back off, but at night when it gets pretty close to 0 then I'll turn it back on.
