In the mid-month of winter, cold are our feet. Buy you some slippers? Drink a hot treat?

Edit: EOFY sales are also on. I’m deciding if there’s anything I genuinely could use and putting it in the basket to think about.

Save on heating costs by only heating your largest room(or favourite room).

If it does not have doors hung in all doorways, get some extendable showercurtain-rails and hang medium-thick curtains from them. Closes off the room and lowers your heating bill.

A thick blanket works well too

Another good suggestion is to get bubble wrap to put on your windows to help with insulation.
