Just got our first post-CFL conversion PG&E bill. It's not a full month of CFL usage, probably about 16 days worth and slightly less than that conventional.
Anyway, our usage dropped 11% over last month and our bill dropped 25%. Both were one-year lows since we've been in this house.
Next month will be a truer picture because we'll have only CFLs for the whole month. I'd love another 10 and 25 drop!

Don't you love how the usage/cost isn't linear!?! It'll be exciting to see a full month's worth, but congratulations for the 1/2 month's worth anyway.
I think you should have some pie to celebrate. Maybe two slices.
I need to make Diane a pie for her birthday. So maybe I will!
Full Disclosure: Had another recessed CFL bulb go out yesterday and two globe-style ones starting to hum. The good part is they fill packages I had to return anyway, so it may make the returns easier. Doing those today.
Very good news on the bill! It is one of those win / wins. You used less electricity, which the environment likes ... and you get to pay less for it! Which allows you to buy more pie!! Yeah again!
