How to reduce my electricity bill in winter?

My house is all electric and is heated primarily with electric baseboard heaters. My electric bill goes up to $350.00 per month in the winter when the heating is on and the house is barely warm.

Is there a way to lower my electric bill in the winter and still keep the house warm?

It's the electric baseboard heaters that are running your electric bill up to $350.00 per month.

Maybe try heating the areas that you're only in instead of trying to heat the whole house with baseboard heating.

Maybe get a natural gas furnace installed if possible. Natural gas furnaces put out warmer heat and natural gas costs less to heat your home with than electric.

Electric baseboard heating or any form of electric heat is a very expensive way to heat a home.
