The wife likes it cool (68F) when she sleeps at night. We set the thermostats to 68 from 9 pm to 4 am. From 4 am to 1:30 pm I let the temp drift up to 78; our house is really well insulated so it takes a while and many days doesn't get that warm. At 1:30 pm it's set to cool to 76; at 6:30 it's set to cool to 72. Basically I'm using the programmable thermostats to gradually cool the house to 68 by about 9:30 p.m.
We're not on a time-of-use electricity rate like Tobra and some others; our base rate here is ~10.9 cents/kWh. FWIW, summertime highs here are in the 105-118 range.
