I found this on Lifehacker.  It has some good tips.  You can find a larger view at the quicken blog.


A Top-to-Bottom Guide to Saving 
Money Around Your HouseYou've heard a few of these household tips, here and elsewhere—install a programmable thermostat, switch to fluorescent, stop energy vampires. Visualized and tabulated for yearly savings, though, those small changes seem much more appealing.
Quicken's personal finance blog has a big-view graphic up that illustrates the monthly and yearly savings of all the small changes you can make for yourself, your wallet, and the planet. Take a gander at a larger view here, and click for an even larger image at Quicken's blog:

  1. I think heating and cooling losses from a building (or any other container) become greater as the difference in temperature increases. A programmable thermostat allows reduction of these losses by allowing the temperature difference to be reduced at times when the reduced amount of heating or cooling would not be objectionable.
