Hi there.

From what I've read, if an electric ANYTHING is plugged into the socket, it draws juice. Even a small amount. But over time, it adds up.

So unplugging anything is better than leaving it plugged in.

but if you think I'm unplugging my fridge so I can save some money, well I'm not.

I'm not to the point where I unplug my other stuff. I don't want to have to re-set my vcr clock and other stuff every morning.

Hope this helps.

Take care,

Melody
