With electricity prices surging, households may be more hesitant to go all-out on Christmas decorations. While most lights are cost-effective, others could rack up hundreds of pounds on your energy bills.
For example, silhouettes of Christmas characters using rope lights could cost £510 if put up on December 1 and taken down on December 31. Thankfully, the experts at Creditfix have developed a tool which helps you work out how much each piece of festive decor costs.
From a Santa rope light archway to indoor mains-powered fairy lights, you can budget your whole Christmas setup, reports Wales Online. The tool also allows you to pick a start and end date, to see how much you could save if you hold off for a day or two.
