My home AC runs alot, my electric bills are high. Help!?

If you're paying a lot for heat and AC, you've got an insulation / weatherstripping issue. Check to make sure your windows and doors are properly caulked and weatherstripped, and verify any openings into the attic for wires or pipes are closed off. Find out what's stripping the conditioned air from your house, and address it. You can check the insulation in the exterior walls of your house by pulling the cover off an exterior electrical outlet or switch - but be mindful of the possibility of getting a poke from a live circuit. Hope this helps.
