For context I am located in Florida and I keep my AC at 76 and never keep the doors opened, but the blinds are up because we have house plants. People say to turn AC to 80 in the day to make it cheaper since my electricity ends up being 200$+ on average. Wouldn’t it cost more for it to constantly being going up to 80 and back to 76!?????

No, the cost of maintaining full AC over a day is generally greater than the cost at half AC for the day, and cooling to full when you come home. I have not done any math for this case, but my gut says that 4 degrees Fahrenheit won’t affect cost much though. It might lower monthly costs by a few dollars, but I doubt it would be any more than that.
