As the country looks towards another bleak winter with the cost of living crisis still affecting thousands, many are again not in the position to turn the thermostat up.
With people up and down the UK looking at ways to slash their bills, people have been forced to wrap up to save the pennies.
But Aldi could potentially be offering a better solution as their £39.99 Heated Airer will make a comeback in days.
The large 230W heater, which can be plugged in, has 20 heating tubes – handy for drying clothes and making the house cosy.
Costing less than 50p for eight hours, everyone working from home can forget about worrying how they’ll keep warm.
If you need it to dry your clothes, this cost is compared with the average tumble drier, which is around 67p per cycle.
And it could be yours when it lands on the shop floors on September 28.
As it is a Specialbuy, once it’s gone, it’s gone – so you may want to act fast to get one for yourself.

How much does it cost to run a heated air dryer?
The cost of using a heated air dryer varies, depending on the wattage of the appliance.
Aldi claims that this heated airer costs up to 6p to run for an hour – which is what Uswitch estimates the average cost of running one is.
So if you use it three times a week and keep it on for four hours, that costs £37.44 over the year.
It marks a significant saving compared to what it would cost if you used a tumble dryer instead.
According to Uswitch, it costs 67p per cycle to run your tumble dryer.
That would cost £104.52 a year if you use it three times a week.
