2. Chargers
It’s a habit as common as it is wrong: we leave almost all chargers constantly plugged into the electrical outlet.

You should not only think about mobile phone chargers, but also those for tablets, laptops or electric toothbrushes.

3. Computers
Don’t put too much faith in computer sleep mode – turning them off can make a huge difference.

Computers use a lot of power even in sleep mode and tend to last less if you leave them on all the time.

4. Television
Its rotating lights have become part of our interior, so much so that we no longer notice them, yet they consume energy.

A television screen can consume energy even when it is turned off, so it is advisable to turn it off at night.

5. Refrigerator
This appliance must always be on to preserve the food we store in it.

However, you can turn off the refrigerator when you go on vacation or have to spend a lot of time away from home. If you remove it during these times, you can save a lot of money at the end of the month.

6. Slippers
Various household appliances or other electrical devices are connected to them and this means that when they are turned on, all the consumption that these devices generate will weigh on the bill.
