Winter is rolling in and if you live in places like new york or Detroit you know how expensive the heating bill can get. So how can you survive this winter and still have some money in that piggy bank? Here’s how:

• Wear Sweaters & Layers. This is the most simple and basic way to save money. Intstead of turning your furnance on and driving up cost.  You can even sleep this way. I had a friend who saved hundreds on her heating bill by doing this with herself and her 3 kids.
• Use a space heater. This can literally cut your heating bill in half. If your in one room most of the time this is a great way to go. Their are many space heaters out their that are very energy efficent. You’d be spending the same amount as running a lightbulb.
• Drink cold water. I know some of you are thinking. What the hell? How is drinking cold water going to cut my heating cost? Well believe it or not by drinking cold or chilled water it forces your body to heat up.  This is also a great way to speed up your metabolism. Try it!
• Use a fireplace. If you’ve got a house with a fireplace this is a wonderful and exciting way to go for the entire family. When your out grabbing some firewood don’t forget to get some marshmellows and hot dogs too! Mmmmm
• Solar Power. For some this will be to costly. But for those who are able to make the investment in solar power they will be able cut their heating cost tremendously. Many solar power home setups come with built in heating systems now too.
