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!?????

I assume 80 and 76 are temperature in Fahrenheit?
If so, 80 is a higher temperature, likely closer to the temperature outside, so it takes less work to keep your room at that temperature.
76 is colder than 80, a bigger difference from the outside and so requires more work and therefore more electricity.
