Staying warm in the British autumn and winter months, either in your home or whilst at work or exercising - can be a difficult and expensive task, especially when a lot of people are delaying turning the central heating on due to the cost of energy bills.
Home owners and renters are looking for ingenious solutions to stay warm without raising their thermostats - and gas and electricity bills. And one way Martin Lewis and his team of Money Saving Experts are recommending people save money is through 'heating the human not the home' - keeping warm with thermals, hot water bottles and more.
Investing in warm clothes helps stave off the cold, but things like electric blankets and heat pads can make the world of difference - with some costing less than 1p per hour to run. Another suggestion by Martin Lewis is a pair of heated shoe insoles, and Amazon is selling a popular pair for just £12.50 for five pairs - or £2.50 each.

The foot insoles which are available in sizes small to extra large, easily slip inside your shoe to provide an impressive eight hours of warmth for your feet and toes. And it is not hard to see why Amazon customers are heaping on praise for the The Heat Company's Insole Foot Warmers. The insoles have a star-rating of 4.5 out of five, with almost 4,000 reviews. Customers are praising the foot warmers for keeping their feet 'warm and dry' at a number of events and occasions, including working at a cold factory and on holiday in Iceland.
