Tip to save on heating bill

Some of you may have already heard of this, but I had not.  A warm mist humidifier.  I guess the idea is you can turn your thermostat down lower than you normally would and the moist air holds heat more efficiently than dry air. 

They used a 7 degree difference as saving $56 dollars a month and a cost of $10 a month to run the humidifier.

Anyone ever try this?
