CFL power consumption?

Hello RIU, i just had a quick question on cfl electricity prices. I am planning on using 3 30watt cfls = 90watts total, and just wanted to know what the monthly price on the power bill will be from these. I know not every company charges the same price, but approxamately what would these 3 bulbs cost a month?

90 watts like 5$ a month at most not sure of the math sorry

Only $5? Thats sounds too little i thought it would be bigger.

ok 100 watts is 25$ a week sorry

90w is as follows:
1.620 Kwh for 18 hours a day
1.080 kwh for 12 hours a day

figure out your Kwh charge on your power bill and then follow this formula

Kwh consumed X Kwh Charge X days in the month = Monthly cost of operation...
