7 Boring (But Smart) Buys To Keep You And Your Home Warm This Autumn

Heat holders socks, hot water bottleWe hope you love the products we recommend! All of them were independently selected by our editors. Just so you know, HuffPost UK may collect a share of sales or other compensation from the links on this page if you decide to shop from them. Oh, and FYI — prices are accurate and items in stock as of time of publication.Sometimes the boring buys are the ones that make the biggest difference to your home and, even more importantly, your wallet.And with the energy price cap having gone up from 1 October, that goes double. Summer is over, after all, and there’s a definite chill in the air that’s only going to get worse as the pages on your calendar keep turning. So, to save you time and energy (pun intended), I’ve looked at some of the less glamorous items out there that more than make up for being a tad drab by saving you from turning that heating dial up too soon.1) Heat Holders Thermal SocksIf you’ve got feet that are perpetually freezing, these thermal socks might not be sexy, but they’ll keep your piggies warm on long winter nights. 2) Honeywell 12L Portable DehumidifierA big part of why we turn the heating up in our house each year is to dry the dampness in the air, which does everything from making you feel colder to keeping our clothing from drying properly to helping pesky black mould grow.It’s an investment to be sure, but with a good, energy-efficient dehumidifier like this one, you can swerve these issues.3) Monogram by Beurer Komfort Heated Mattress CoverAnother little energy-efficient number is this electric mattress cover, which costs literal pennies per hour to have on and is machine-washable for extra convenience.4) Teddy Bear Long Hot Water BottleAnother wallet-friendly buy is this long hot water bottle at just £14. Soft and fleecy, it’s perfect for snuggling up with. 5) USB Heated Mouse Pad with LCD DisplayIf you’re looking for something a little more budget-friendly for your home office setup, this heated mousepad has five different temperature levels, comes in a range of sizes, and helps keep you cosy while you work. 6) Bonnie Scallop Wool RugPossibly the least boring thing on this list, this cute rug is made of wool, which is an ideal fibre for keeping you warm (and your feet away from the cold floor) in winter.7) John Lewis Synthetic Soft Touch Washable DuvetThis duvet has literally hundreds of 5-star reviews under its belt, with buyers loving things like its softness, how lightweight it is, and its easy washability.Related...Earlier Breast Cancer Screening Can Save Lives – Could It Save Yours?These 10 Home Decor Buys Will Make Your Space Super Cosy For Autumn9 Boots That Are Right At The Top Of My Summer-To-Autumn Wishlist
