I know this is kind of weird to ask, but how low do you guys go on your thermostat in the winter?

68 is as high as I like to go. Anymore than that and I cringe  67 is pretty good! (Unless it's real cold. I'll agree to 70. it has to be realllllly cold )

67/68. Lower in the upstairs at night. (Better sleep when it's cold! ) If it's super cold outside we'll bump it up a little bit. But never go above 70. - New Hampshire

67-69. If I didn’t have a toddler that kicked off blankets sometimes, I would probably stick to 67 and never go to 69.

66-68 during the day/night (during the day when we are home) and depending on how cold it is. When I’m at work during the day, I usually kick it down to 62/64.

Not weird at all - 50 daytime and 65/68 before bed. If you’re asking for night time sleep comfort We have wools mattress covers, sateen sheets which to use are much warmer yet breathable, a heavy fleece blanket topped by a quilt. All purchased close to 20 years ago at Garnett Hill. In daytime we wear long sleeves or t-shirts with hoodies or a fleece zipper jacket. Winter we seal windows.
