The supermarket giant has a heated laundry airer scanning at £21 down from £42.

How else can I keep energy costs low?
There are ways you can keep your winter bills down and some of them are things you could do straight away.
When you put your heating on remember to check that all of your windows are closed.
Many people tend to leave the bathroom window open slightly but unless you have just had a shower there is no need to, it just means precious heat can escape.
Sticking draught-proofing tape in the gaps around windows and doors could save around £45 on your energy bills, according to Energy Saving Trust.
You can buy a roll on Amazon for around £5.
Draught excluders around your doors also help to keep heat in and using an electric blanket instead of putting the heating can help reduce costs.
