In our area our bill varies depending on our usage. The average electric bill we have here is from $40 to $60 per month. But for some reason our bill ends up over $100 at times due to the usage of the TV and computers.

Hmm your electric bill is preety much heavy. Here in USA electric bill is not taht low. We stay in appartment and for us average bill comes of $80 to $90. It goes up because of heating and airconditioner, this two consume lots of power. Here for people who have house bill goes easely over $200, as our friend pay for their houses.

Hi, regarding elecricity bills, I pay normally around INR Rs. 1000/- a month for it, means around 22 USD per month. It depends upon ur consumption and the power supply situation. THANKS.

Some say that the Philippines is one of the highest cost of electricity in Asia... But I think it's true... Our electricity bill at least 1,500 - 2,000 pesos a month... That's around 50 dollars a month...

The price of electricity just increased another 12% and it was already outrageous. We are so careful and so frugal, but our home's heat is run on electricity so we can't afford enormous bills. For a 2 month period in the coldest part of the year it can be 360 euro. In the summer it can be as low as 25 a month.

I pay about 36 dollars on average a month. That is one thing I like about having a small, one bedroom condo. It costs very little to maintain. I think some big homes can be pretty scary when it comes to utility bills. Its not for me...

I live in the Philippines too. In our case, our previous electricity bills ranges from 15 thousand to 20 thousand pesos because of our internet shop that really consumes a lot of energy everyday. But, because we bought an energy-saving device which is offered by the electricity providers themselves, our electric bill decreased. Now, it only ranges from 8 thousand to 13 thousand pesos. Almost 30-50% lesser than our previous payments. I HOPE you will also try that amazing product. kudos.
