We have porch lights, but unless we're outside, it's a waste of energy to turn them on, IMO.

No. The only time we use our porch light is when go somewhere at night, and then when we get back, we can see everything good.

I turn it on if I'm expecting company at night, or if my husband is on his way home. He does the same for me. Otherwise, I don't keep it on all night.

I like to leave at least one on so the house looks friendly I don't want it to look like some bitch house. I turn it out before I go to bed. My mom doesn't like it on when it doesn't need to be but...yeah...
