Retail giants, including Focus and Homebase slash prices on energy saving products, even offering 'buy one get three free' deals, to entice customers to spend in autumn.
Focus is offering a 'buy one, get three free' deal on Space Blanket loft insulation for the next four days.

The deal, which ends on Sunday, November 1, is equivalent to £2.99 a roll of 150mm and 200mm loft insulation.

Earlier this month, Homebase ran a 'buy one get one free' promotion on Knauf Earthwool loft insulation, with 170mm priced at £10.

Cut price insulation sparked a price war between some of the top DIY retailers in February this year and the latest news looks like this is set to be a repeat performance.

Philips Genie Energy Saving 11W light bulbs were also on offer at Homebase, priced at 10p per bulb.

The 11W energy saving bulbs are the equivalent to a 60W incandescent light, which were recently banned from manufacture in the UK. Panic buying was widely reported following the September 1 enforcement of the ban, with customers stockpiling the traditional 60W bulbs.

Meanwhile Sainsburys has been offering five of the same Philips bulbs for just 50p in an instore promotion.
