After years of splurging and the promotion of unchecked consumerism, saving money is the thing to do now. One way you can keep your cash is to look into lowering your energy costs.
In the winter, your heating bill becomes your highest home expense other than the mortgage. Conversely, in the summer, your air conditioner usually is the culprit that runs up your energy bill.
But it doesn’t have to be that way!
This article will show you some great ways to lower your energy costs in your home to save money.
1. Cut Your Ceiling Fans On
One of the main and best ways to save energy is by using your ceiling fans rather than your heating or cooling unit.
When it comes to ceiling fans, make sure that you turn them the right way depending on the season.
- In the summer, turn your fan to run counter-clockwise.
- Your fan should run clockwise in the winter.
2. Open The Curtains And Blinders
You can use natural sunlight to heat up your home if you’re intentional about it.
On a cold day, open your curtains to get additional sunlight into your living space. Not only will this brighten up your home, but it will warm it as well.
3. Invest In A Cheap Fan
You can also save money by buying a $20 fan that circulates air in the room you’re in.
Here are some great cheap fans to consider.
- Honeywell TurboForce Circulator Fan
- Comfort Zone 3-Speed Floor Fan
- Lasko Premium Box Fan
- Hurricane Classic Clip Fan
- High Velocity Personal Fan
4. Make Sure Your Appliances Are Working Properly
Sooner or later, your appliances are going to need some attention. They don’t last forever, so at some point, they’ll malfunction or stop working as they did.
What you want to do is maintain your appliances, especially the big ones like your washer or dryer. Those cost big money.
5. Apply For Utility Discounts
Depending on your age or other qualifications, you may be able to get a discount on your utility bills.
Many cities, states and municipalities give older residents or military veterans a break on their heating bills.
Final Words
Finally, keep a tab on what you’re spending on energy. Once you see that number in print, figure out how to cut it in half.
Remember, here are the steps you can take to lower your energy costs.
- Cut your ceiling fans on
- Take advantage of sunlight
- Buy a cheap floor fan
- Keep your appliances in working order
- Get a discount (if you qualify)
Keep the ideas coming. If you think of some other ways to save, let us know!

Congress painstakingly approved a more than $900 billion stimulus package to keep Americans afloat during the coronavirus pandemic. Aside from a $600 one-time payment (will it be $2,000), there are other things in the bill you may want to know about.
We’re going to show you what’s in ihe stimulus package for you.
Although a first wave of payments in April 2020 came and went, millions of Americans are still hurting financially and need monetary aid.
Here Are The Stimulus Package Details
A co-author of the $908 billion package, Sen. Joe Manchin, D-West Virginia, told the media in early December that lawmakers were close to approving a $600 stimulus to Americans in need. But there was much debate over certain add-ons that President Trump wanted inside the bill, including spending for a border wall.
Many critics have slammed the $600 stimulus as a slap in the face, but others are grateful for any paltry sum.
Here is what the stimulus package includes:
- $600 direct payment to most Americans
- $300 additional pay for unemployment benefits
- Reopening of the Small Business Loan Program
- Moratorium extension of eviction protection
- Aid for nutrition assistance
- Aid for child care and schools
“We made major headway toward hammering out a bipartisan relief package,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, told reporters.
With many workers still preparing for layoffs, lawmakers are poised to approve more stimulus money down the road in 2021.

Are you looking for information on where you can get the COVID-19 vaccine in Atlanta? We’re going to tell you everything you need to know.
The COVID-19 vaccine is being distributed to all 50 states. Hospitals and medical facilities are the first priority of the 3 million initial doses that are rolling out.
By year’s end, the U.S. government plans to have 300 million doses distributed across the country. They hope that by springtime 2021, the majority of Americans will have access to the vaccine.
This article will be updated with the latest information as we learn of it.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp updated the public on the vaccine rollout in Georgia, saying, “[The Georgia Department of Public Health] and our team are ready to assist in getting the vaccine out to our most vulnerable Georgians and those fighting this virus on the front lines.”
Have COVID-19 Vaccine Vials Arrived In Atlanta?
COVID-19 vaccine vials were shipped into Atlanta and arrived the morning of Monday, Dec. 15. FedEx is handling the shipments to Georgia’s capital city. The shipments come from a Michigan facility, which is the origin point to handle shipping logistics of distributing the vials throughout the nation.
The vaccine vials are all freezer-packed because of their delicate nature and capacity to destabilize at room temperature.
According to the Georgia Department of Health, the handling requirements for each vaccine product will vary from refrigerated (2° to 8° C) to frozen (-20°C) to ultra-cold (-60° to -80°C) temperatures.
Who Will Get The Vaccine?
You may be wondering who is eligible for the vaccine in Georgia and how it will be rolled out. This is the plan, according to the federal government’s COVID-19 immunization program, Operation Warp Speed.
Phase One:
- People over age 60 with health problems
- Health care workers
- Firefighters, EMTs and other first responders
Phase Two:
- Essential workers (grocery associates, jail staff, truck drivers, etc.)
- School and child care workers
- Anyone age 60 and older with underlying conditions
Phase Three
- Those aged 21 to 30
- Moderately Exposed Industries (Hairstylists, tattoo artists, etc.)
Phase Four
Anyone else for whom the vaccine is recommended.
The CDC says that the list of groups listed in each phase is by no means all-inclusive and will be revised based on developments that arise.
What Kind Of Vaccine Has Been Shipped To Atlanta?
Atlanta may be getting different types of vaccines, but as of this writing, the city is getting the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine, which is the first to be approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 is for use in people 16 years of age and older. The vaccine is only authorized for emergency use for as long as the pandemic lasts.
Last Words
Some vaccinations will require two doses for the patient to be inoculated. This will require that you more than likely place a reminder for the second dose due date in your smartphone calendar or a similar place.
The Department of Public Health will use the Georgia Registry of Immunization Transactions and Services (GRITS) to collect data on COVID-19 vaccine doses administered rom health providers.

New findings show that if you plan on visiting Atlanta, it’s cheaper to book a hotel than an Airbnb.
Of course, Atlanta’s Airbnbs offer some of the best homes in the Southeast, but as with anything, it needs to make financial sense.
Atlanta has some affordable apartments, but you may be inclined for a hotel or an Airbnb.
Is It Cheaper To Book A Hotel Or Airbnb?
A new report from FitSmallBusiness.com shows that renting an Airbnb in a medium-sized city like Austin or St. Louis makes way more financial sense than doing so in a major metropolitan mecca like Atlanta.
One reason for this is cities like Atlanta, New York and San Francisco have a high average housing costs. And these costs are will be added to the visitor’s bottom line.
There’s also a premium on Airbnbs in these large cities because of increasingly hostile housing regulations, which severely limit the supply of Airbnb locations. That causes their prices to rise.
To come up with the numbers, the site looked at the following criteria:
- Price (55%)
- Amenities, inclusions, travel purpose (20%)
- Availability (10%)
- Location (10%)
- Regulatory environment (5%)
Let’s look at the top cities to book hotels, then Airbnbs based on those statistics:

If you’re facing the foreclosure of your home, it can be an anxious time. In Georgia, you have good reason to be. Atlanta also has the fourth-highest share of mortgage delinquencies.
This article will show you what you need to do to stop a foreclosure in your home in Georgia.
What Is The Foreclosure Process?
The foreclosure process begins when the bank sends you notification that your home will be repossessed in a matter of days.
The actual foreclosure typically occurs on the steps of City Hall and is administered by the sheriff of the presiding county of where the property is located.
For example, to witness or take part in a foreclosure auction in Fulton County, you’d need to be on the Fulton County Courthouse steps as the sheriff’s deputy begins the process by listing properties.
By federal law, foreclosure auctions must be advertised in a newspaper of record. That’s why it’s important to check newspaper listings, especially papers that specialize in real estate listings.
In addition to newspapers, foreclosure listings can also be found:
- Legal publications
- Courthouse steps
Now that you know what to expect at a foreclosure auction, let’s talk about how to avoid it.
How Can I Stop My Home From Foreclosure?
Here are some ways you can stop your home from being foreclosed on.
1. Reach Out To Your Lender
The #1 way to avoid foreclosure is to contact your lender and see if you can renegotiate your mortgage. This may involve setting up a payment plan to catch up or agreeing to make a balloon payment.
The lender may have tried to get you to work something out earlier, but now that you’re more motivated, they may be willing to listen to what you have in mind.
2. Apply For Deferred Payments
A payment deferral moves your past-due payments to the end of your loan and brings your account current. To qualify for the deferred payment option, you typically have to:
- Contact your mortgage lender and inquire about deferred payments.
- Show them that you are able to resume regular payments after the deferred payments process.
3. Apply For Forbearance
Sometimes, the lender doesn’t want to grant you deferred payments due to your history. That’s when it’s time to ask about a forbearance plan.
Many homeowners don’t like forbearance plans because they may typically end with you owing a balloon payment at the end of the process — but it doesn’t have to end that way.
If you are able to apply and be accepted into a forbearance plan, make sure to tell the lender that you still don’t have the money to make the back payments.
The lender’s options at this point usually are to grant you a deferred payment plan or let you refinance at a more favorable rate. Let’s talk about that.
4. Refinance Your Mortgage
Because lenders ideally don’t want to get stuck with stale properties due to foreclosures, they’d rather you continue to make your mortgage payments.
One to ensure that you continue to pay is if you refinance your mortgage. This is a preferable option for lenders who know that homeowners in financial trouble.
5. Loan Modification
Similar to a refinance, a loan modification typically lowers your payments so that you can afford to begin paying your mortgage again.
Even before you miss a payment, a lender usually will be willing to set you up with a loan modification because they know that you’re still interested in paying for your mortgage.
Lenders don’t mind making loan modifications if they see that you’re sincere about repayment. In many cases, the loan modification amount will include a small fee each month to help the lender recoup what was lost during the months you didn’t pay.
6. Sell Your Home
The last resort in many foreclosure cases is for the distressed homeowner to sell their property. While this is not an ideal situation — namely because it may hurt your credit a bit — it is a viable way to get out of a mortgage you’ve fallen behind on.
If selling your home before it goes into foreclosure is your only option, make sure to try to get rid of it before it officially goes into the foreclosure process. Once a home enters the foreclosure process, the bank is presumed the owner — not you.
That means you lose all the bargaining power you previously had and you may not see a dime of the money from the sale.
Final Words
Foreclosing on a home can be a demoralizing ordeal and is not for the faint of heart, but these things do happen.
Always try to work with your mortgage lender before you get in arrears so that losing your home is never an option on the table.
To recap, here are the steps you can take to avoid having your home foreclosed on.
