Wherein we take every juvenile opportunity to focus on the "stripping" part 

As you might imagine there simply is not one single interesting image of weather stripping to be found. Anywhere. But if you Google "stripping" it's a whole different story. But my point is this: weatherstrip your house. One long, painful afternoon of double sided tape and bickering with your roommate/loved one will seem like a walk on the beach when you realize all the heat/money you're saving.

In fact, the experts say improperly sealed homes can squander 10 to 15 percent of your heating dollars. And if your place is like Shift HQ you could drive a fully loaded Prius through some of the cracks in our walls. Follow some of these easy steps and you'll be lounging in your Cozy Chic Robes mid winter sipping margaritas on the veranda.
