Tesco shoppers hail 'magic' money saving item that can replace electric blanket

Edinburgh is in for yet another day of cold weather with the Met Office showing highs of just 1C and low of -2C for the capital for Monday (January 16).

With it getting colder outside, many people are looking at ways to keep their homes, and themselves, warm. And with experts urging households to heat the person instead of heating the home, people are doing exactly that as they take to online shops to see what they can find.

Items such as rugs are being hailed with B&M shoppers finding a bargain for just £1 which are said to slash as much as £60 off energy bills. Not only are items such as these a good one to get your hands on but Argos shoppers have been hailing the retailer's so-called 'max drying power' airer, as some have said in reviews.

The foil lining is great as it reflects body heat back to the sleeper in order to retain the warmth, keeping your bed cosy and without the need to buy an electric blanket.

The topper is also machine washable, so you don't need to worry about spillages.

The product description adds: "Not only does this topper help you save money on your heating bills, it’s also deeply quilted and made with super soft fabric for added comfort. The elasticated straps make this topper easy to fit over your current mattress during the colder months."

Tesco say that the product is available for delivery or collection between January 3 until January 25.
