Try eco-home products without breaking the bank with new sustainable-living campaign
SaveMoneyCutCarbon has launched its new eco-living campaign: ‘Give Eco a Go’ amidst the financial backdrop of the enduring energy crises. It comes as the latest forecasts from energy consultants Auxilione suggested energy prices could go above £6,000 a year for the average household next year. As we near Autumn, efforts to tackle reducing energy bills for those on low incomes are now a top priority for both the UK government and sustainability companies.
The nation’s leading money-saving and sustainability platform, SaveMoneyCutCarbon, is highlighting the need to reduce consumption in order to keep up with soaring energy costs by offering its customers the opportunity to ‘Give Eco a Go’. This means consumers can purchase any eco-product from their Home Shop, install it, trial it, and even return the product, free of charge, for up to 30 days, if not satisfied.
Promoting the message: ‘Give Eco a Go’, the sustainability superstore is welcoming their new sustainable living campaign to help break barriers associated with eco-living, showing how a simple swap can save you hundreds annually on your energy bills. Their products include Smart-tech home products, lighting alternatives and laundry products to allow users to put their money-saving products to test.
On their website, you can find their latest ‘Swap of the Week’.
What happens to the returned products?
Without contributing to additional waste, the sustainability superstore has teamed up with two incredible charities. Firstly, the Thetford Foodbank, which is part of ‘Seeded’ by the Trussell Trust, and Lighthouse, the women’s refuge based in Ipswich. Any eco-friendly products returned will be donated to help their community kitchens.
Saving money on cleaning and kitchen equipment means that both charities can use the money on other necessities to help people in crisis further.
Kirsty Brandon comments on the money-saving potential of sustainable swaps in light of their research:
“We hear it all the time, you want to try and be more sustainable but don’t know where to start or are worried that eco-friendly products won’t work as well and you’ll have wasted your money. That’s why we’ve launched “Give Eco A Go” – to remove those barriers. Trying a product with the peace of mind that you can get your money back even if it makes taking the leap to being more sustainable a bit of a no-brainer.”
“There is the notion that sustainable equals expensive. However, SaveMoneyCutCarbon hosts a wealth of eco-friendly products, which cost the same or even less than their traditional counterparts. For example, swapping your traditional kitchen roll for a reusable bamboo version can save you around £60 a year. Swapping your shower head for an eco-friendly option not only uses 60% less water, but it will save you £40 a year on energy bills. The best part is your shower experience will be just as good as before!”
