surviving the recession

There may be a recession on, and you may have lost your job (or be worried about losing), but you still have to heat your house and light it to cope with the winter. So what to do?

Heating is important - those who try to do without tend to get gravely ill. Allocate part of your budget to heating and mark this as a priority expense, along with the mortgage, to make sure you always have something to pay the electricty and heating bills.

That said, there are various strategies to cut the bills down by switching your electricty supplier to one with lower tariffs and by removing waste. See this list of energy tips for small things you can do immediately to reduce your energy usage.
