Households struggling with their heating bills this winter could be in with the chance of getting their hands on a free electric blanket, thanks to one major energy supplier.
Octopus Energy has launched a new scheme that will see them giveaway thousands of blankets to some of their 3.1 million customers today to help them keep warm without turning on the central heating. The new scheme comes just as households across the country have been hit with a new energy price cap, with the average household bills hiking from ££1,971 to £2,500 per year.
In a bid to help keep costs low, many of us have been looking for ways to cut back on our energy usage, with electric blankets being a popular method for keeping cosy without racking up heating bills.
