Turn off any spot lights, or buy the LED versions.
Use any charging, vacumming, washing, or anything that uses large amounts of electricity until your weekend (Which is off peak).

If you do it right, your costs drop sharply.

Thanks Theo,

My wife introduced those small lights a few years ago now.
When they sort out our off peak metering we'll make a point of doing stuff on weekends for sure.

Cheers
