Well as the only commenter that has a whole house energy monitor for years with trillions of sampling points of electricity and not random speclation let me say this.
On average 1.6 to 1.8% of your total electricity bill is save for each degree higher the ac is set.
Is that a lot? In the world of electricity consumption it is. There is no magic solution to save ten or twenty percent, it all comes from small changes.
Try this device to find out for yourself, with most users saving 6-9% or so. That is everyday, year upon year.
