SMART shoppers are running to Argos to grab an energy-saving product that costs from just 1p a night to run.
The retail giant is selling electric blankets which should cost you just pennies to run.
Slumberdown’s Comfy Cosy Nights and Perfectly Warm electric blankets are in stock online in several sizes.
The Perfectly Warm single costs £50 while the double costs £65.
The Comfy Cosy Nights single is £45, the double £60 and the king-size £75.
While they aren’t the cheapest electric blankets out there right now, they will cost you from just 1p a night to run.
Of course, this can depend on the setting and how long you leave it on, but it is worth considering if splashing out for this blanket now could save you money on energy bills in the future.
You must hurry though – Argos was selling another blanket from the same brand but that’s now out of stock.
The store was also selling another Slumberdown electric blanket – Warm Hugs – for just £30 but that is now not appearing online.
Although it may be worth popping into your local Argos to see if it’s in stock there.
You’ll pay extra for home delivery from Argos, which starts from £3.95, but click and collect is free.
Don’t forget to shop around and compare prices to get the best deal though.
We couldn’t find the blanket elsewhere for any cheaper, but if you find it elsewhere then that retailer may be offering other deals which could help you save some cash.
The Comfy Cosy Nights blanket has three heat settings and warms up in just five minutes, and can be kept on all night.
Similarly, the Perfectly Warm blanket can also be left on all night but has nine heat settings.
There’s also an overheat protection feature for safety and a two-year manufacturer’s warranty on both.
But best of all they’re cheap to run – and could help you keep your energy bill down this winter.
Customers who have bought the blanket deemed it “brilliant” and highly recommended it.
Energy bills are currently capped at £2,500 a year for the average household, though this will change in April.
The weather has dramatically dropped recently and people are having to find ways to spend as little as possible while also keeping warm.
We recently wrote about nine ways to keep energy bills down while keeping warm during this cold snap.
For example, make sure you’re only heating the room you’re in – don’t waste money on unused rooms.
Keep the flow temperature and your thermostat low.
Think about what you can do to reduce draughts in your house – cover windows and cracks in floorboards, and consider purchasing a draught excluder.
