As the winter approaches us at an incredible rate, the central heating will be being switched on throughout Britain. But let us take a look at some of the outragous ways that people try to heat up their homes.
Tumble Dryer
Why run up two sets of bills? Well thats at least what these lot believe. Instead of switching on their central heating they leave their tumble dryers running all day and then when they have reached a good level they open their doors and out flows a blast of heat.
Oven Hob
Probably one of the more dangerous ways, especially if you have kids. But what I have seen a lot of people do is open up their oven hobs and allow the heat to flow out of there. Once again a really uncanny technique that will in all likelihood end up costing them more money.
Boiler Water and Dehumidifier
When I first witnessed this type of technique I was literally spellbound and just how ridiculous people could be. These people used to leave the shower running and the kettle boiling to heat up a room, at the same time a Dehumidifier was running in the background which was pulling the moist out of the air. Crazy, absolutely crazy.
Mass Candles
Oh, the former wax light trick is saved until last. Did you know that burning even 100 candles in a single room will not provide the necessary heat during the winter months, yet people still proceed with this technique.
Now you may be thinking to yourself, why to people do all of this stupid stuff. Its simply because they have somehow convinced themselves that they will be saving themselves money, when all they are going to be doing is spending even more money.
