Look at the Billing Information. For example, my gas bill (TECO) shows in December that I used 6.2 "therms". January was a cold month and I used 39.4 "therms". The "PGA" is the purchased gas adjustment. That is the cost of gas purchaed for the customer by Peoples Gas and delivered to your home. That cost was 88 cents per therm. In December 2012, that cost was 78 cents per them. Prices have increased.

Yes, my bill tripled but it was a very cold month and I stayed warm.

Ask yourselves what your gas heating bill would have been in Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, or those other freezing cold places we came from -
and you will probably be glad you pay what you did in January in The Villages.

Check any of your old bills from where you came from and I would bet there is the monthly service charge on those bills, too.
