It was 1 degree here the other day. FREEZING.

We live where the weather is as it should be, so the thermostat really isn't a consideration.
Boy....doesn't get more "off topic" than this! LOL.
I'd have to ask the super coz I don't have one in here

Mid 30's with possible flurries. 16 degrees overnight tonight.
Damn, blue! You must be roasting!
Ours is set at 67. But our gas bill was $500 last month, so I think my husband has turned it down. I had it up to 70 at one point.

No...I feel comfortable, actually! But I just turned it down to 68 and will make it lower before I leave to go out. I was really cold earlier in the morning.
Yes, we are having a heat wave of 38 degrees today, so I think that may be why he turned it down.
53. and i don't even believe in global warming. what about you, commies?
The heat on side B of the apartment seems to not be working except for an occasional burst of warmth. Side A's heater seems to work on some schedule that has nothing what-so-ever to do with the controls.
Oddly enough, it's all okay.
My thermostat doesn't have any numbers. I have it set on the second dot.

whatever the dorm room decides to heat, or not heat, to today

The thermostat is at 62 (to conserve fuel) but I keep a vaporizor going and the warm steam keeps the house very warm.
My dorms have no control on the thermostat, I do have a clock in my room which tells the current temperture, and if I close all the windows when I go to sleep when I wake up it is around 95. Needless to say the windows are open all the time.

I keep mine between 62 and 65, largely because I'm not herea whole lot of the time. I'd rather put on another layer of clothing or another blanket than get it up past 70.
My partner keeps his right around 70 and his $360 heating bill shows it...but he had major furnace issues during a wicked cold snap last year and I'm beginning to think keeping warm overrides the cost of it.
72
but I keep my door closed and the fan on in my room because I prefer it colder.

I'm sorry, I didn't know there were degrees of OFF TOPIC.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who keeps the thermostat low. The highest it is ever set at is 65 and while we're sleeping it's at 59.
DollyPop I don't use a vaporizer but I do something similar. My bedroom is small and I have a crockpot with just water in it and it allows some steam to escape and adds some warmth to the room as well as humidity.
Radiana, you're so funny! Now I have an image of you sleeping in your cold weather gear with a crockpot of water in your room!
I don't know what it's set at, but it is still cold in my house. I think part of the problem is the house being too open. We have a cathedral ceiling in the living room, with a balcony overlooking it.
Yep, our house too. And it doesn't help that my laptop is on the kitchen table right next to the sliding glass doors.

Stockard not only am I funny but I'm a woman living on a budget. I will devise any thing to save money especially the kind of money that just goes out the window.
That might make a good thread sometime. WHAT I DO TO SAVE MONEY?
That could come in handy for the upcoming economic troubles we're all facing.
"but I keep my door closed and the fan on in my room because I prefer it colder."
Really Masie,really?
Mine never goes above 64 =[
