Those of you who turn the heat on in the winter
What temperature do you keep your thermostat at? I usually keep mine on between 68-70 when I'm home. At night or when I'm not home, I turn it down to 64. I have a digital thermostat that I can program, so it turns itself up before I get home from work.

^^^^ You're crazy. This is me at work. *sitting in a refrigerator with a puny little space heater under my feet* *coworker walks in* (shared office). "It's hot in here!" *look at thermometer I brought in from work. Pegged on 65 degrees* *find another winter coat*
We have a heat pump, so I keep it right at about 70 degrees all the time. Moving the thermostat up more than about 2 degrees causes the "emergency heat" to come on, which takes a LOT of energy. Keeping it consistent is better for us. During the summer the air is usually at 80.
