[aggrezior]

[evident]

there's nothing you can do.

 

[Dime]

Well everything gotta match with the standard.

no wonder I find myself ripping off mcdonalds / other cafes' powersocket + wireless@sg internet whole day for a drink. tricky part is when you need to go toilet....

 

[Lovehurts]

Hmmm...Seems like everything is going up, up, up these days.

Shame our salaries ain't one of them.

Election is coming. No?

Basket. As if my family's not poor enough already. Sooner or later S'pore's gonna be among the most expensive cities to live in. Rich country blues... The country is getting richer and richer while the people are getting poorer and poorer.

Maybe you guys want to state how much your bills are?

Mine is about $250. Family of 4.

 

[wyldeboon]

[junkiemanxl]

I think it would be a good idea to include if the air conditioner is used as well.
That would make a significant difference in monthly bills..

Air Con: YES. Guilty. Every night

electricity is going up but is the fuel prices high i tot it came down by a bit?

so what will be the reason for the prices to go up? high fuel prices? operations of powerplant increases?

there's the reason the government gives you, and there's the real reason. depends on what kind of person you are - you'll accept either one. of course i could give a long, long rant on this. but frankly, there's nothing anyone can do but pay your bills or get your resources cut off.

 

[maryjane^^]

well, when there is a monopoly in the industry, there's nothing you can do about it as there are no alternatives. Just got to accept it although it sucks.

 

[EugeneSmasher]

Yeah. You know the saying, 'suffer in silence'. There's nothing we can do about the global economy. Either you suffer here, or you leave the country, go elsewhere, and land yourself into another series of problems. Ah well...

my family's bills are about 120-family of 7. damn good already. and we dont need ac, cos house on top of hill, so strong winds at night.

 

[EugeneSmasher]

$120 for a family of 7 is really very nice. Mine's a family of four but I suspect the utility costs are above that!

Personally I try not to use the lights, the air-con and the water heater (when showering) unless necessary. Hope it makes a difference...

It is interesting to note that our bills are quite varied. This means, we all use different amount. Well, we pay for what we use. Use more, pay more. Use less pay less. It is fair.

Air con = $$$$ !!!!
