Martin Lewis has shared ten things you should do now to help you survive the cost of living crisis after April brought in a raft of bill increases.
The big one is energy bills. The energy price cap, which limits how much households can be charged for each unit of gas and electricity, has risen by £693 for those on a default tariff who pay by direct debit.
Council tax bills have also risen by 3.5% on average for a Band D home, while water bills have gone up too, along with broadband, mobile and some mortgage payments.
