In posting #4, I suggested unplugging all unnecessary appliances to save energy. Yeah, don't do that with your refrigerator, okay? Unless, of course, you're an astronaut and all you eat is freeze-dried sea monkey eggs. Because then you don't even need a refrigerator, silly!
For those of who aren't busy faking moon-landings, you should know that your buddy the fridge drinks electricity like it's water...Did somebody say, "Segue?" No? Oh, okay.
Anyway, a great way to trick your ice box into thinking that it's icier than it really is is to put a glass pitcher of water in the refrigerator so that it will use less energy trying to cool down. I just blew your mind, didn't I? Basically, since it has this chilly core inside of it all of the time, exuding coldness, your fridge doesn't have to do the work to lower the temp itself.
Does that make sense? Whatever. Go Google it. I'm going to bed.
