Beat - furnace quit working, $282 bill

[CarlSpackler]

My furnace went out over night, and it was 50 degrees in my house in the morning. Got a guy to come out and take a look. $282 later, he tells me the fan was tripped because I didn't change my filter (how did I not do that?), and there was a couple handfuls of dirt in the coils.

I guess I can brag that at least my house didn't catch fire and burn down because of this.
