Electricity, Gas and Water Bill - pls share how much you are paying per month...
@icebreaker1928 sorry kung paulit ulit, confirm ko lang ung 171 na bill nyo is for 3months? So it was like 57 per month? Tapos family of 3 kayo? Ano pong nirerent nyo? Like how many bedrooms? Kasi family of 3 din kami eh. Salamat po sa paliwanag in advance
confirm ko lang ung 171 na bill nyo is for 3months? - opo So it was like 57 per month? - every 3months po bayaran dito Tapos family of 3 kayo? - opo Ano pong nirerent nyo? Like how many bedrooms? - 2BR unit po
@TasBurrfoot aha! Youve changed your name. Hihihi. Yes you have a point. Its better to share with individuals than family. Lalo na with kids. Its hard to divide and justify expenses like pub amongst household members. Meron naman 1BR apartments na affordable, i guess @kremitz
@jengrata - it is just preference lang namin ni misis; we value our privacy kasi... Eh kung dala ang family, parang kami na yung nakikitira diba? Ehehehe!!
Ayannsi @icebreaker1928 family of three. Mga how much monthly expenses for a family of three?like how old ang kid mo?then what state kayo?both working po ba kayo?

Pano mo ginawa yung sa inyo sir? Huhuhu, sakin kasi $70 sa isang buwan, to think mag-isa lang ako. At wala pang heater yun at that time. Suskopo, baka umabot na ako ng $100 ngayon kasi ang lamig lamig na talaga, hindi na kaya no heater.
May tips po ba kayo para makatipid? Or baka OT na to.

Dati pa kahit sa Singapore, we got our own place na rin kahit na gumagastos kami dagdag every month! Less stress if kami lang dalawa, nothing to manage apart from ourselves!

Ha?? Ano po yung line 1 na sakit ang dapat tanungin? Nawala ako sa discussion :-/ .
@icebreaker1928: AGL eh. Oo nga, nakakaiyak! Pero minsan nakakatulugan ko ang TV. Hindi nga lang yata minsan nangyayari. Parang lagi.
@nfronda: hindi po ako marunong mag plantsa kaya di ko nagagawa. Pero fridge non-stop yun. Washing machine at dryer once or twice a week. Wala na eh. Iniisip ko kung ano pa pwede ko cut-down.
@jengrata: Wala talaga ibang gumagamit ng electricity ako lang.

@psychoboy.. Our electricity bill during summer season ranges $600-700. Our house is a 3 bedroom house. But nung tag lamig our electricity bill ranges $300-400. Electricity bill nga pla is 2months yan.. Wla aqong idea sa water bill namin ksi ang owner ang nagbabayad.
Every two months ba yung utility bills dito? Naghihintay pa Lang din kme ng first bill namin.... Yung water namin is owner din ang nagbabayad... Not that I'm complaining... Curious Lang Akko Kung bakit kaya....
I just got our water bill; 3wks worth of usage came out at A$14.14...
Revisiting this thread again since I started it... We just got our fist electric bill from Origin; we will be paying $75 for 45 days of usage with average daily consumption of 2.16kWh - take note, this is just basic lights, fridge and washing machine plus iphone/laptop charging and wifi modem. wala kami TV, dryer and non-usage of the heater here.
I would say mahal sya, S$130 kami sa Singapore before and this included daily aircon of roughly 8hrs/day, ps3, TV, washing machine, water and gas consumption.
Just have to get use to this kind of pricing I guess...
Revisiting this again, around less than 7wks of natural gas usage (cooking & water heater) - we got our first bill and it is $137.53; I was a bit shocked, ehehehe!! It will come out as around $3.06/day of usage.
I guess I need to cut down on my 7 minute shower - probably gawing 3 minutes nalang... Ahaha!!

$50, origin din. Sabi nila, mahal daw talaga Origin. Kaya lang, wala kami ibang connection dito. Mas gusto ko nga sana AGL for everything.
I think ok talaga yang solar power na yan. May idea ba dito kung paano yan? Tsaka pwede ba dalhin solar power from one apartment to another?
Sino kaya dito gumagamit ng solar power panels??

Dati pa kahit sa Singapore, we got our own place na rin kahit na gumagastos kami dagdag every month! Less stress if kami lang dalawa, nothing to manage apart from ourselves!

@icebreaker1928: AGL eh. Oo nga, nakakaiyak! Pero minsan nakakatulugan ko ang TV. Hindi nga lang yata minsan nangyayari. Parang lagi.
@nfronda: hindi po ako marunong mag plantsa kaya di ko nagagawa. Pero fridge non-stop yun. Washing machine at dryer once or twice a week. Wala na eh. Iniisip ko kung ano pa pwede ko cut-down.
@jengrata: Wala talaga ibang gumagamit ng electricity ako lang.
