It seems that everyday, technology leaps forward - not moves forward, but literally jumps! Yet many things remain the same and we would do well to recall the old standards of days past... like the good, old-fashioned electric blanket.
I have a blue one I received for Christmas some years ago and it still works. I have no idea how much it cost whomever gave it to me, but I know a friend bought one recently and it cost her well over $100! Still, even though gas prices have dropped somewhat, she is destined to save at least that much in utilities this winter.
Little things like electric blankets, better insulation, weather stripping, and simple household repairs can help save you tons of money throughout the winter months. So make sure to follow the link above to learn more!
