On the smart meter; ours is around £3.50 each day with no heating, washing or dishwasher. For gas and electric, have a log burner which has been in a few nights but I'm rationing the logs.

I nearly had had a heart attack the other day when it was nearly £6 after a day of washing!

Absolutely no idea!

Just checked ours and we're on £6.53 today for gas and electric combined.

We haven't had the heating on today but have done 4 loads of washing, dishwasher x 2, tumble x 3, oven on for an hour, hoover for quite a while as the dc hoovered the car. Plus the usual TV, lights etc.
