With summer coming to a close and winter rushing at us here in TO, it\u2019s important to be able to stay warm and stay under budget with your apartment costs. Most apartments don\u2019t have heating paid for, and if you crank up your heating every day 24\/7, you might be left with a bill that\u2019s more difficult to manage than you initially thought! Here are some great, low-energy ways to stay toasty this fall and winter and maybe even have a little fun at the same time.<\/p>\n
Whether you\u2019re watching TV with friends or a roommate or simply sitting in bed and relaxing, it\u2019s the perfect time of year to get every blanket in your house and cuddle up into them like a shivering bird. While it\u2019s obvious that this is something that\u2019s available to everyone, not many people take up the offer. Best bet is to invite the cutie you keep eyeing up at the food court at university for a movie night to get cozy. The cold is a great excuse for a snuggle.<\/p>\n
While plugging in a heater does use energy, they all tend to be much more efficient than your Toronto apartment\u2019s old radiator or baseboard heating, and the space heaters themselves are very reasonably priced. The great thing about these is that most of them have a timer as well \u2013 so you can go out to work, set a timer, and have a toasty warm house when you get back. This saves on hours of heating a day!<\/p>\n
Your ugly Christmas sweater isn\u2019t just for ugly Christmas sweater parties. Instead of cranking up the heat in your apartment, take out one of these sweaters and get warm! (Non-garish sweaters are also great options.) If you\u2019re just loafing around your house, it makes no difference what you look like, and these sweaters tend to be very comfortable (if horribly tacky). It\u2019s all about making the best out of a cold situation!<\/p>\n
Toronto gets super cold in the winter, so it pays to know all the little tricks there are to save on costs and still maximize comfort! No matter who you are or how much money you have, saving money every month adds up, and gives you more options for the future!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
