Don't send precious warm air up the chimney; remember to close your fireplace
damper.
Save money on that gas-powered snow blower and pay local neighborhood kids
to shovel your driveway.
Frost on windows may be charming but it's uncomfortable for your home. Cover
single-pane windows with plastic film to avoid drafts, install storm windows,
or upgrade to double pane to save money for years to come.
Unplug video games and turn off the millionth broadcast of The Christmas
Story and read a holiday story instead.
Don't leave the door open to carolers. Put on a parka and join in the fun
outdoors.
When shopping for gift wrap, look for recycled paper. And recycle paper
after unwrapping gifts.
Don't open the oven door to check holiday goodies. Each time you open it,
the temperature drops about 25 degrees.
When cooking on your stovetop, make sure the size of your pot matches the
size of the eye on your burner to reduce wasted heat.
