LIDL'S sell-out winter gadget is back on shelves this week and it could save you money on your energy bills.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0discount supermarket\u00a0chain is bringing back its bargain\u00a0electric throw, and it costs just 3p to run.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Silentnight\u00a0luxury heated throw is back on supermarket shelves fromNovember 19. <\/p>\n
It will cost just \u00a325 and is available in stores only.<\/p>\n
You can find your nearest Lidl branch by using the store locator tool on its website.<\/p>\n
The gadget was last available in December 2022 and cost \u00a329.99. <\/p>\n
It costs just 3p to run as it uses 100W of energy an hour.<\/p>\n The heated throw, which measures at 120cm wide and 160cm long, comes with nine heat settings and a three-year guarantee.<\/p>\n Not only that, but it will turn itself off if left alone for two hours, meaning it's ideal if you want to put it over yourself before bedtime.<\/p>\n It does come with a warning not to fold it up when in use and is not recommended for children three or under.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n This means they can be a great alternative to putting the heating on as they're much cheaper to run.<\/p>\n Recent figures from\u00a0CheckaTrade show that the average cost of running your heating per hour is 7p\u00a0per kilowatt-hour.<\/p>\n This means that if you have a 24 kW boiler, it might cost you \u00a31.68 an hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n It means that if you have your heating on overnight for eight hours, it could cost you \u00a313.44.<\/p>\n While Lidl's heated blanket costs just 24p to run for eight hours.<\/p>\n The blanket is machine washable too to make for easy cleaning and is made of faux fur. <\/p>\n Shoppers are full of praise for the\u00a0energy-saving\u00a0gadget online.<\/p>\n One customer said: "Best thing I ever bought."<\/p>\n While another wrote: "These are amazing! Total game changer."<\/p>\n A third commented: "I\u2019ve got an electric throw for the couch and they are amazing."<\/p>\n Lidl isn't the only retailer that's sold the heated throw previously –\u00a0Aldi often sells out\u00a0when it brings the gadget to market.<\/p>\n Remember, to always shop around when buying something like this as you might be able to find it cheaper.<\/p>\n You can use websites like Price Spy and Price Runner to compare how a certain product is selling across different retailers.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Google\u00a0Product tab is also a quick way to scan the\u00a0internet\u00a0to see if other websites are selling a similar product for less.<\/p>\n We had a look to see if you can find the Silentnight heated throw cheaper than \u00a325, but couldn't.<\/p>\n Argos\u00a0sells Slumberdown electric blankets with prices starting from \u00a335.<\/p>\n Tesco\u00a0is also selling a heated blanket for \u00a320.<\/p>\n Heated throws and blankets do differ slightly so make sure you do your research before you make a purchase. <\/p>\n A heated throws acts like a usual throw but heats up when turned on. <\/p>\n Electric blankets are designed to fit below the bottom sheet and they are typically used to pre-warm a bed.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, another of Lidl's sell-out winter gadget that will help you save money on bills is coming back in days.<\/p>\n Plus, B&M shoppers are rushing to buy a gizmo to dry clothes without turning the heating on and it costs just 8p an hour to run.<\/p>\n You can also join our new Sun Money Facebook group to share stories and tips and engage with the consumer team and other group\u00a0members.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/picture>HEAT UP <\/span><\/p>\n
