You cant blame Mary Horomanski for getting a little charged up when she saw her electric bill earlier this month.

When the Erie, Pennsylvania, resident checked how much she owed the electric company online, she was met with a bill for a whopping $284 billion.

Yeah, you read that right.

My eyes just about popped out of my head, the 58-year-old Horomanski told the Erie Times-News. We had put up Christmas lights and I wondered if we had put them up wrong.

On the bright side, she had a full year to pay the entire $284 billion. Her minimum payment would be a mere $28,156, according to The Associated Press.

For some reason, Horomanski suspected there might have been a billing error, which was confirmed when her son called electricity provider Penelec.

Turns out, she only owed $284.46 still high, but much more manageable.

Mark Durbin, a spokesman for Penelecs parent company First Energy, said he has never seen a bill for billions of dollars, but told the Erie Times-News the company appreciates Horomanskis willingness to reach out to us about the mistake.

The multibillion-dollar bill did inspire Horomanski to add an item to her Christmas list.

I told [my son] I want a heart monitor, she told the paper.

Accidentally high bills are a shocking part of modern life.

In August 2012, a British woman on vacation in South Wales bought a cheap mobile phone because her own cell couldnt pick up the local signal.

Thanks to a technical glitch, she ended up being slapped with a bill for more than $42,000 .

In July 2012, a bank error caused a Nashville, Tennessee, man to be charged $84,522.54 for a $30 tank of gas.

Good thing he saved the receipt.
