Saving energy and money can be difficult, especially during the summer. However, as long as you follow a few simple guidelines, you will notice a difference in your bills almost immediately. Here are a few things you can do to save on your energy bill each month:

• Close the door: Don't leave your entryway as open as a darn door every time you go in or out of your home. You will be letting your cool air outside, causing you to pay money for what is literally going to waste. If you are not sure if you remembered to shut the door tightly, check on it. It is much better to be safe than sorry.
• Purchase the right windows: Of course, you can help conserve energy by investing in windows that are made of the best possible materials. Double-pane Energy Star-certified windows will keep your home as energy efficient as possible, helping to reduce your expenses. If it is time to purchase new windows, look for these kinds of models. 
• Turn off unused devices: Even if an electronic device or appliance is not being used, it will still suck up electricity if it is plugged into the wall. When you are done using your computer or the toaster oven, take the time to unplug it. This will save energy and will prevent any surprises on your monthly statement.
