My electric was at $60 during winter consistently (I have gas furnace and gas water heater), and last month was $161, but I recently cleaned the a/c coils which were clogged pretty bad and changed our filter which was about 9 months old. Hopefully that helps a little. I have a 1000 sq ft house with a/c set on 73 all day, and a 20g tank with 250w mh and low wattage pumps.

Also, whenever we are not using something, we unplug it. The only thing that stays plugged in is my tank. So, I guess with my house being really old and not efficient (single pane windows), that's probably why my electric is so high.
