Deduct 10p from their pocket money every time you have to switch an appliance off for them and put that toward paying the electricity bill.

Seems like nobody knows about this product (energyegg). Even I didn’t know, one of my friends used it and recommended me to use it if I wanted to save energy and money.

just buy the lowest power electricals, they will have standby of 0.1W which is not even worth turning off for.

Lime plug for remote control of a 4 gang extension cable.

If that fails take the TV/games away or make them play with them downstairs where you can see them - DD is always told "one thing at a time" as she will sit and read or play Nintendo and leave the TV on at the same time.

You could fill this in and show them how many things they could have had if you had not needed to spend it on electricity

£40 at Tesco but probably worth that to be able to switch their electricals off at the touch of a button and on a whim
