Swapping to eco-gadgets rather than buying those that suck up electricity like it’s going out of fashion will knock £££s off your bills. So, if you’re out shopping this weekend, ask about wind-up, solar-powered or at least rechargeable alternatives before you buy.
If you’re looking for bigger buys, such as a washing machine or fridge freezer, check their energy efficiency ratings before you part with your hard earned cash. Eco-friendly appliances needn’t be wacky alternatives - anything with an ‘A’ rating is designed to cut down on energy consumption. Before you start, check out our shopping guides for the latest and best bargains.
Now you’ve got a bit of time, why not go through some of your bills to see just how much money you could save by switching suppliers? It’s not difficult to do so, and you could save yourself lots of cash over the course of a year.
Confident you could sell your home without an estate agent? It’s not the easiest way to clinch a sale, but if you need the extra money, going for a private sale over one where you have to pay commission, could reap you thousands back.
Drop your British reserve and learn how to get a discount just about anywhere – you can save thousands every year by asking for money off anything from holidays to carpets. Don’t know how? Click here for starters…
