The main bills I need to reduce are Electricity & Gas.
Electricity:
All lightbulbs are already energy saving. All appliances are A-rated, apart from a condensor drier which isn't used at the moment and is switched off. During the winter it's used maybe twice a week with the rest of the clothes dried on the washing line when the weather is dry and on the radiators when the weather is wet.
The electricity is used for appliances (cooker, hob, fridge, dishwasher, tv, laptop, skybox), lighting and the immersion water heater but this also isn't turned on.
Gas:
Gas is used for heating & water heating only. Radiators are switched off in rooms that aren't in regular use. The house is double glazed & well insulated along with properly vented. Right now the heating is turned off and the gas is switched on for 30 mins twice a day to heat water only.
With the winter coming I need practical ideas on how to keep my utility bills to a minimum but don't have any money to invest in the house to make changes.
