Cutting down on everyday costs has become the norm for many households across the UK, from using appliances during off-peak times, swapping the oven for an air fryer or opting for the fire place instead of central heating. The rising cost of living is starting to have an influence on consumer buying habits.
Between now and this time last year the popularity of certain household appliances has rise by more than 6,000%, with air fryers, dehumidifiers and log burners appearing to be at the top of shoppers' lists.
According to comparison website Price Runner, that look at more than 6,000 UK providing retailers, these household appliances have more than doubled in interest as consumers try to keep gas and electricity costs down.
