I've swapped out nearly all of my light bulbs for compact fluorescents. I noticed a difference in my electric bill right away. My wife and I are also more conscious of keeping unnecessary lights off. I also keep my heat and a/c running strong with yearly tune ups and frequent changes of the air filter. And I installed a programmable thermostat when I first moved in.

I use CFL all round the house. If I'm not in a room the light is turned off. When I'm not at home everything is turned off. The thermostat turns the heaters on an hour before I get home. If it's cold I wear warm cloths, when it's hot I shed some cloths. It's all easy 1-2-3.
