It is starting to reach freezing temps here and my bedroom is a nice and cozy 12 degrees C right now. My gf and I look like the grandparents in Charlie and the chocolate factory because we lay on the couch under blankets the whole evening. But my heating is still off.

I pay 66 euro’s a month right now but my energy supplier suggests upping it to 192 euro’s a month, or pay a 350 euro end bill. I choose the end bill in the hope that shit will calm down soon because the amount is doable right now. Several of my coworkers pay 2-4000 euro’s for their end bill though. Needless to say, they can’t afford it.

How about you guys? Got any tips to heat the house without turning the heating on?

    Italy here, the stereotype is that is all warm and nice but temperatures in the winter can reach - 7 here in Rome, that said our condominium didn’t even turn on heating and they won’t till December, it’s really sad n dumb considering that even now in the “warm” month yemperatures regularly reach sub zero in the night, its unbearable and I’m starting to feel like a 19th century peasant, without heating (that we still pay😴) we need to constantly have jackets on and we need to sleep with so much stuff on
