A frugal mum has told how she has saved more than €400 on her electricity bill over three months just by going back to basics.
Jenny Bean, a nurse and mum of three, is renovating a 250-year-old stone cottage with her husband John.
The family are living in the home while they work on it, which has posed a number of conundrums as electricity is the only mains supply, and it's currently capped at 25 cent k/WH.
