TELL US: When Do You Turn On Your Heat?

With heating prices on the rise, when's a good time to turn on your heat? Before Columbus Day? After Halloween?

Brrr! If you're like me, you like to save money wherever you can and that includes heating costs. 

This year, I'm doing my best to save on heating costs by wrapping up under nearly every blanket in the house. I'm hoping to not turn on the heat until well after Halloween this year, but it's getting chilly! 

In fact, the North Shore is under a freeze warning until 9 a.m. Saturday, according to the National Weather Service. Temperatures could drop below freezing and even "bring an end to the growing season," according to NWS.
