NOW the cold weather is here to stay, we’re all looking for money saving hacks to stop our energy bills going up.
From using heated blankets to keep ourselves warm to not using the tumble dryer for our laundry – we’ve all come up with savvy ways to save cash.
But there’s one issue that comes with not using the tumble dryer, clothes take a ridiculously long time to dry, especially when the weather is cold and damp.
Not only does this mean we have clothes lying around our house for days, it can also cause condensation, which can lead to mould and make clothes smell damp when they finally do dry.
Thankfully, a woman has shared a bargain buy that will get clothes dry in no time.
Most of use indoor clothes airers in the winter for our laundry, but as stated previously, it can take ages for it to dry.
But this bargain-friendly buy from B&M will solve that problem in no time.
Taking to social media, Gracie, from the UK, shared a dupe of Dry:Soon heated airer which cost around £170.
She found a much cheaper alternative in B&M which was just £50 but has since been slashed in price down to £35.
The heated airer has 12 metres of drying space and just needs to be plugged in.
The metal bars will heat up and you can hang your laundry on top – leading them to dry in no time.
What’s more is that people say it’s so cheap to run especially compared to a tumble dryer.
The post shared to Gracie’s TikTok account @gracieurand went viral with over 585k views and 7,700 likes.
People were quick to take to the comments seemingly desperate to get their hands on the winter essential.
One person wrote: “I have this, it's the best thing and runs cheap.”
Another commented: “I have this! Love it, couldn't be without it now.”
