Sunday looks equally good. In the past that has translated into an even lower price. I shall once again hedge my bets and delay things until 10am tomorrow. Looks like this weekend could give us the best prices over the festive break.

You'll pay a tiny bit more for your electricity than you are used to.

Yes.

Unless you use thousands and thousands of kWh in a year even a 20% increase can only ever result in peanuts in extra costs.

2,000 kWh at 23p instead of 18p is only £100 extra a year, £8.33 a month.

Nothing significant unless you use considerably more than 2,000kWh in a year.

Do you?

Or the price of a decent bottle of wine (or a case of cheap plonk). I know what I'd prefer.

Those were precisely my previous thoughts re the absolute savings vs lifestyle changes trade-off. It's nice to make an informed choice however.

If I was that bothered I would devote the time I spent worrying about something I cannot change on something more productive, such as earning some extra money to pay for the moderately increased electricity cost plus the bottle of wine and a slap up meal to go with it!
