A vent booster called the AirFlow Breeze is plugged into my existing vent and it draws additional heat into my room without raising the temp. on my thermostat. My utility bills have dropped and I am also saving a lot of energy which makes me feel better about my choices. I am serious about the difference, especially now that it has gotten colder.

You might be thinking "how can I tell that?" you can tell by the SEER rating the higher the SEER the more efficient it is you should be looking for a SEER rating of 13-18. How does this help? well... This will help heat you house better, be nicer to the environment and the best part... put money back in your pocket! Installed properly and depending on the efficiency you could save $40-$50 a month. And Keep replacing those filters!! Most people don't think about that but it helps the air flow and helps to maintain your heating and cooling system. We recommend the standard blue filters changed once a month. Oh, and one more thing. A programmable thermostat can help save you money while at work! Isn't that great? I love it!

No need to keep it at 72+ when you can throw on some sweatpants and socks/slippers and still be quite comfortable when the temperature lower. Good point webomatica, and that one is most likely free.
