Must have Black Friday product will keep you warm for around 2p an hour over winter

It's really starting to get cold now and turning the heating on at full whack is getting even more tempting.

But thankfully, Black Friday is here - and it's the perfect time to bag a bargain that will keep you warm throughout winter, without breaking the bank.

Shoppers have dubbed this product a 'must have' as it ticks all the boxes, will go lovely in most living rooms and allows you to keep your energy bills as low as possible.

We're talking about Lakeland's Sherpa Electric Heated Throw, of course. It's the talk of the town!

The soft and fleecy sherpa lined blanket gives a luxury feel, while making sure you're super toasty when you are wrapped up inside it - even if it isn't switched on.

But you can really get snug and find the perfect temperature for yourself when you do turn it on, as it has nine different heat settings to choose from.

Turning the heated throw up a notch is obviously a lot easier and more financially efficient than turning the heating on.

It comes with an easy-to-use controller that also boasts nine time settings, so you have full control of exactly when the heat turns off without having to move a muscle.

Lakeland's comfy throw also has built-in overheating protection so you don't have to worry about cooking like a turkey if you nod off on the couch with it on.

If you're somehow still not sold on this, finding out its price has been slashed by £36 for Black Friday might manage to entice you.

The Sherpa Electric Heated Throw has now been reduced from £89.99 for the promo, so be quick if you want to bag it while it's just £53.99.

Although that's still a significant chunk of change, the blanket promises to be a good investment for the winter months.

Throwing this over yourself instead of cranking up the central heating will save you some money - as it can run for around 2p an hour. Bargain.

Heated throws and blankets are all the range during the colder months, and the gadgets are actually something the team at Money Saving Expert thinks could help keep costs down this winter.

Martin Lewis and his team recently explained on their site that plugging in a heated blanket for an hour would cost you just 2p per hour and will definitely stop you from reaching for the thermostat so often.

That's just 98p per week if you had it on for seven hours a day. So, what are you waiting for?

Catch you in the queue at Lakeland.
