Skip the Straw

    Really happy I did this so I can see where our problem spots are... and we got free light bulbs and an efficient showerhead. We need better insulation!

      I think Energy Trust will give you incentives for stuff like that. I'm trying to get my house off of natural gas in the next few years.
