Stay warm this winter without burning through your cash with our cash-saving tips


ARE you feeling the chill as winter rolls on? Tumbling temperatures and biting winds have got many of us in full hibernation mode.

And the last place you want to be feeling the cold is in your own bedroom.

But you don’t have to burn through cash by tuning the thermostat way up.
I’ve picked some easy and affordable ways to keep warm this winter.

Wicked idea: You will be surprised at how warm and cosy a room will feel after you light a candle. I love Aldi’s pomegranate candle at £3.49. It smells just like Jo Malone’s very popular Pomegranate Noir, which costs a hefty £48.

SAVE: £44.51
Snug as a bug: Wrapping up in a lovely blanket will leave you feeling relaxed and cosy. Primark has a great selection of throws to choose from, such as its extra-large, super-soft mustard throw, £12. But to save the most cash, you can get a similar one from Wilko for just £5. Layering-up saves on buying a higher-tog duvet, too.
SAVE: £7

Best of both: A lush duvet is great for making your bedroom extra-comfy. I love Nanu’s Hot & Not duvet, currently half-price at £25. If you need a new duvet, this is a fantastic deal. Plus, you can choose a different tog for each side of the duvet, in case you and your partner don’t agree on the same thickness.
SAVE: £25
Hot hack: Sometimes sticking to tradition is best. You can’t beat a hot water bottle to keep you toasty and warm in bed in the cold weather.  You can get a cute leopard print hot water bottle down from £7 to £5 at Asda.
SAVE: £2
