With energy costs at an all-time high, there’s a very simple way to cut heating bills and keep your home warmer this winter.

Radflek Radiator Reflectors sit behind your radiators to stop all that heat escaping and going to waste – and Bargain Hunter has an exclusive discount plus a giveaway this week.

The manufacturer claims that the technology reflects 95 per cent of the wasted heat from behind your radiator back into the room, providing instant savings, and typically paying for itself in just over a year.

The reflectors come in three, five and eight-sheet packs at £21.99, £33.99 and £49.99 respectively, and readers can get 25 per cent off by using the exclusive code NDBHOC2514 at radflek.com/shop. The code will be valid until 31 October.

Five readers can also win a three-sheet pack of Radflek Radiator Reflectors. Simply send the answer to the following question to yourmoney@independent.co.uk to be in with a chance. The question: The film Some Like It Hot starred which actress alongside Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis?

Energy giants are warming to competitive deals

The big six energy companies are fighting back with competitive fixed-rate tariffs. Following months of deals from smaller energy providers undercutting the giants, uSwitch says there’s now evidence of better offers coming through the traditional channels.

In fact, the launch of SSE’s ‘SSE Direct’ tariff means that the big six now hold five out of ten spots in the best-buy tables.

Sainsbury’s Energy, powered by British Gas, is fifth with a fixed deal of £1,099 until October 2015. SSE has cut its cheapest tariff to £1,029 to grab seventh, while EDF, npower and ScottishPower fill the eighth, ninth and tenth spots.

However, top of the table of the best energy deals is still the small supplier Extra Energy, with its “Fresh Fixed Price Nov 2015 v2” tariff at £984.
