January can be a bleak month, given that you have to peel yourself out of your toasty bed to face the day ahead.
With months of winter left, people will be wrapping up and also cranking the temperatures on their central heating, reports the Mirror. However, as the cost of living crisis rages om, many will also be looking for alternatives to keeping their households comfortable and warm.
One way to do so is by investing in cost effective means of heating yourself up, like plug-in heaters and electric blankets. Another option is a fan heater, and one has been spotted in Argos for a super price and a cheap running period.

Shoppers are calling the "small but mighty" heater a "life saver" - and it'll only cost you £32. The Challenge 2kW Ceramic Fan Heater has three heating settings and a safety cut out switch to prevent overheating.
It weighs 1.2kg, is suitable for room sizes of up to 10m², and has a tip-over protection switch as well. On top of all this, the heater's 1.8 metre cord and freestanding design means you can move it to wherever suits you.
The little gadget is thermostatically controlled, so it can also blow out cool air - perfect for when the summer months get just a little too humid. This wee heater has received hundreds of positive reviews from shoppers who praise the product as being an "extremely efficient" purchase, and "great value for money".
One satisfied customer wrote: "I purchased this fan heater when our boiler broke down. It kept our lounge lovely and warm on very cold winter days. Would highly recommend it."
Another said: "I bought this to heat up my lounge for when I work from home and didn’t want to have the gas on constantly given the rising costs at the moment.
"My lounge is a fairly large room so I was worried that it may not be as effective as I’d hoped - however it is fantastic. Blasts hot air and heats up the room within minutes. No complaints whatsoever!"
While a third, who called the heater a 'life saver' added: "Bought this to reduce central heating costs and get localised heating. The first was so good that I bought the second one. Throws out hot air very quickly and the fan distributes the heat around the room really quick."
One savvy shopper checked her smart meter and confirmed that the heater costs just 40 pence to run on the lowest setting. This means it is not only effective in heating up the home, but it won't stretch your wallet either.
You can purchase the The Challenge 2kW Ceramic Fan Heater from Argos here for £32.
