Honestly, my electric bill in Phoenix was killing me until I tried this one thing

Tbh, I was paying over $400 a month last summer just to keep my house at 78 degrees. I finally caved and got a smart thermostat, the Nest one, and set it to bump up to 82 when I'm at work. Ngl, I was shocked when my bill dropped by almost $100 the very next month. Has anyone else found a simple tech fix that actually made a big dent in their energy use?

My dad called my bike commute a phase. It's been five years.

I mean, everyone says to eat out all the time, but idk, hitting the market and trying to cook with foreign ingredients feels more real. Maybe it's just me, but it saves cash and lets me control my diet better.
