A thrifty woman has shared some hacks that will people halve their energy bills, including charging her phone on a solar panel and cooking on a camping stove. Kerry Collinson, 51, from Crewkerne in Somerset, decided to act after her energy bill rocketed due to the cost of living crisis, reports the Hull Daily Mail.
Since she made the changes she has managed to cut her gas bill by two-thirds and also halve her electricity bill. Now the crafty mum only pays £10 a month, after the £60 government grant.
The commercial cleaner has had her central heating switched off but she insists her "quality of life" has not changed and that she's "very happy".
