Tips for keeping warm this winter
There are plenty of other affordable ways you can stay warm this winter.
Get yourself a hot water bottle, you can them in lots of different shapes and sizes.
They are always great for a cost-free way of keeping warm.
Before you get this heated throw also worth checking if you are eligible for free electric blankets.
Major energy firms have been giving away free electric blankets and money-saving gadgets as part of customer support packages.
Don’t forget about preventative measures, draught-proof your home and seal your windows to stop cold air from coming in.
Prices for draught excludes start from a fiver in most stores but a thick blanket rolled up next to a draughty door will work just as well.
Seal up any draughty windows with easy-to-use draught excluders, prices for them start at £1.99 and they could save up to £70 on your energy bills.
Loft insulation is also very important as it can stop heat escaping, therefore slashing your heating bill.
You can buy insulation from all local builder merchants or retailers such as B&Q and Wickes.
