sorry to be thick but how do you work out the running costs of a freezer ? i have discovered the joys of buying reduced bread and am trying to work out if it would be sensible to buy a freezer to store it in or wether i am wasting my time

also has anyone had the lemon chicken from m and s is it nice ??

many thanks

If you look them up on John Lewis (or other online retailer) you will see something like:

Estimated Annual Energy Consumption Information - 249kWh/year

It then depends on what your tariff is as to what this means in money terms.

above example was for a Beko tall freezer. My electricity rate is something like 11p per kWh so this freezer would cost approx. £27 per year to run - if full. It costs more to run if part empty.

many thanks mally will find out the tariff and attempt to work it out

much appreciated

Booooo

A freezer that is full is cheaper to run then an empty freezer

Any empty space, fill with bread an milk or just empty ice cream containers
