Ronalda Ann Idk how it is in other parts of the country if you have to leave your AC on all day. Coming from Jamaica, where usually rich people had AC because it was so expensive with the light bill, I was scared to get my first light bill. It wasn't as bad as I expected. I read up on FPL's website how to conserve electricity and one of the tips was to turn up the AC when you weren't home. So at this time, I usually have the AC at 76 degrees when I'm home. When I leave the house I turn it up to 80 degrees. This help with the electric bill. Try it! Every mickle, makes a muckle!

Ronalda Ann I did a post before on me banking with Ally bank. I got this email that they increased their rates recently. When I moved to the US in summer 2015, I did research on bank interest rates and was appalled at how low most banks are. I do need an operating account for my day to day so I chose TD Bank because of their hours, and Ally because of their interest rates. I only use TD to make cash deposits on the rare occasions I need to deposit some cash but I mainly use Ally. They also have pop money where you can transfer money to other bank accounts for free. Banks can charge fees and you have to be careful and watch those.
