Years ago I bought a mylar quot;emergency blanketquot; at my local Walmart in the camping sectionI cut it to fit my bedroom window and taped it over the window securely with scotch tapeI did it because I worked nights and needed to sleep during the daytime and the sun was too bright, the good thing was that it blocked a lot of the heat coming in my bedroomOne other benefit was that it was like a one-way mirror, I could see outside and watch my car without someone seeing meMy daughter caught a girl trying to get in the cars by looking out one day, think she thought we had aluminum foil on the windowsThe whole apartment felt several degrees cooler in the hot summer months., and I could take it down easily when I wanted extra sunlightDo you have any tips for winter or summer or any other energy-saving tips you would like to share?

When doing laundry, always wash or dry a full load and air dry when possibleI have a small dryer stand that I use in the basement and in summer take it outdoorsWhen I use my oven, I try to cook the entire dinner : meat, veggies all in the oven so as not to waste the heatIn cold weather, after I turn off the oven, I leave the oven door ajar so we feel the warmth instead of turning up the thermostat on the furnaceWe keep the thermostat at 65F and wear sweaters during the day.
