fuck me dead,i would kill myself,my neighbors,my kids,and the fucking dogs if i had a bill like that.
i know i live in oz,but our electricity is not the cheapest ,and i would average $240 every two months.and i have aircon on 24/7in grow room also most of the time in a large house with three kids who leave every fucking light,and t.v etc on all the time,plus a 600 and 400wt lights,and other sundries in the room going none stop,i would think you could have the whole house as one huge grow op,and it would still freak me out,where the fuck do you live man,if it costs that much you can get a mortgage,and move the fuck somewhere cheaper for your power.
hope it was a typo.

as for a 500 increase in your bill if you can pay it dont sweat it remember they just cant knock on your door just for that and if they do tell em to get bent

I did not mention I run a Machine shop running on the same power as my house, and yes it is well over a 1000 a month, but the increase was probably due to a cold snap and other projects going on, you guys crack me up
