I don’t think this is what they did but hear me out. If you wanted something to be seen it would be brilliant to put something so non harmful up only to take it down purposefully under the impression that there was something juicy there. If you’re like me you thought it was a bombshell and went looking and actually saw the ad that you would not have seen otherwise. Increased the eyeballs on the ad and no one gets hurt it’s the perfect idea.

Reading other comments I’m also seeing she doesn’t actually live in Worcester which makes a little more sense. Worcester has some sort of deal and it’s a little cheaper in the city. 400 makes more sense knowing it’s outside of the city.

I would have national grid check the meter and make sure it’s not charging her for an additional shared space or something. 400 seems high to me for a 1br. That being said, 68 at all times sounds excessive. I turn my heat to 60 and leave for the day. Turn it to 60ish at night. I’ll “blast” it to 68ish when I’m in the living room or just around. In my opinion leaving the heat at 68 around the clock sounds incredibly wasteful but luckily it will be an easy bill to reduce. Turn it down when you leave and before bed. Curtains open towards the sun during daylight and closed away from the sun or at night. Weather stripping/door sweep to windows and entrances. A couple throw blankets on the couch. Comfy sweatpants and long sleeves. She could very easily reduce the bill by 30% with minimal if any sacrifice.
