The bedroom AC units work really well, so we have them set at 75 and its nice and cool. I only turn them on when we are in the room. The living room set doesn't have a thermostat, so its usually either too hot or too cold in there. In the winter, the thermostat is set between 69 and 72.
During the day 71 or 72, at night 68-69. We have the AC on all the time because it's been 100+ here with the humidex also, I couldn't imagine turning it off. Most days lately I have it set to 71 and it is 74-75 in here because the AC just can't keep up!
Anywhere between 68 and 70. H and I work outside all day with a lot of in and outs. The last thing we want is to come into and 80 degree house. It's not cool to us.
A/C is our splurge item! We make up for it in the winter though. We keep our house pretty cool then too.
Lena's room is set to 68, downstairs is set to 68. My bedroom during the night? No higher than 62. Ever. In fact, right now it is set to 62 When I leave the room, I turn it up to 68 though.
77 for us. We have fans going constantly, but it is so expensive we couldn't do it any lower. And our electricity provider doubles our kilowatt hours during the summer so it is even more expensive!
80 when nobody's home, 77 I think when we're here. I just want the humidity sucked out most of the time, and w have ceiling fans. If its in the $0s outside I turn it off & open windows.
76 in the summer and 68 in the winter. It's so expensive to run here -- we ended up getting a ceramic heater for Cam's room because it was too expensive to keep the heat up at 72 or so for him. He never slept well if it was too cool/

In the summer the thermostat is usually set to 72, but this year it has been at 68.
In the winter we keep it 72-74.
78 in the summer (I grew up with it more like 80, so 78 seems cool).
65 in the winter (that's the lowest our thermostat goes)
