​Need a Glow at Night - Save with Solar Lights - May 2018

Our electricity bill was literally breaking our budget. With three young ones in the house all wanting lights on in their rooms at night and other passage lights left on to guide them to the toilet in the dark, we decided this was the reason behind the exuberant bill. After much mulling, we purchased some solar lights for the toilet and all three bedrooms. 

During the day, our young ones are responsible for placing their own room's solar lights in the back garden (this encourages them to be responsible, and might encourage them to wean themselves off from this necessity, and i am responsible for the toilet solar light). 

By taking the solar lights outside to store natural (free) light and them placing them back in their rooms at night, we have seen an incredible savings in our electricity bill. Any families that need a glow in any rooms - this is a cheap and very cost effective way to manage this - i strongly recommend you do it!
