How expensive really is a gas bill?

<p>joev - I would wonder - since you moved into 1/2 a house - could that gas bill possibly be for the whole house?? I would also wonder if it is an estimated one as 1moremom said. Definitely go read the meter and call the gas company - that bill you have sounds exorbitant - we have gas and heat a whole house - gas dryer - gas hot h20 and gas grill - and gas fire place - live in the northeast - runs about $200 in the winter months - $300 if a REAL cold snap for a few weeks.</p>

<p>As a new tenent you may want the gas company to come and check the meter also - and also ask the gas company for costs on that proberty for the past 12 months - will give you a good idea of what you should expect. Good Luck - hope it works to your advantage.</p>
