Veronica at Adorehair, 262 Main St., Manchester, NH does a great fade, and doesn't charge more than $20 for a fade. You'll want to make an appointment: 603-674-4110.

Handsome Devils is a good walk in barber shop essentially geared towards younger people. You will get a decent fade from anyone there.

Varnished is good and where I go but you need an appointment and it’s expensive.

Not sure why you were downvoted, Varnished was great, I only stopped going because they were so busy I could never get in, though I'm guessing the second location will help some with that.

The guys at Stanley's on Webster Street do a great job as well.

The crew at Varnished in Manchester is great. I've been going to Nick for a while and have been very happy with everything. They just opened a new location and it's great.

Phil, Handsome Devils. He took care of me for 5 years. I wouldn’t even comment if I still lived there.

Electric rates in Manchester are ~150% of the national average, with power bills for apartment residents averaging around $200/month after the recent rate hikes -- that assumes central HVAC so includes the summer air conditioning and the blower motor for heat (but not the cost of actually heating the air).

To clarify: I currently have that here in my current place in KS. Heating is covered with the rent at my new place in Manchester. I'm just looking to see what electric bills average out to without that heat component.

>No gadget will save you.

I'd be sad-faced about it if I was actually asking to be saved from one.

>If the apartment has an electric furnace/baseboards, consider buying space heaters and only actually heating the room you are in (e.g. just the bedroom at night).

Good stuff! I hear buying some thick, blackout curtains can also help with the drafts and efficiency. Will keep what you said in mind. Thanks!

No major drawbacks.

You'll want to keep track of when your locked-in rate expires and how it differs from the Eversource rate and the supplier's default rate.

If you don't, you may find your rate jumps significantly above even Eversource's rate once the promotional period ends.
