Thinking about getting a few smart plugs and maybe a smart thermostat, but I keep seeing different answers online. Some folks say they save $20 a month, others say it’s barely enough for a cup of coffee.

Has anyone here actually looked at their energy bill before and after? Was it worth it in the end?

I’m trying to convince my partner it’s not just me buying more shiny gadgets 😅 Would love to hear real numbers if you’ve tracked it.

If you know any good online calculators for this, please share!!
