What have ^you^ got plugged in this morning?

Just my phone today. Toothbrush yesterday. I have got the airing cupboard but it’s only on for a short while thenI turn it off. Television on though.

I always charge my phone in the evening before going to bed, would hate to think of appliances left on or charging during the night, ok the fridge/freezer but thats all. Oh sorry, my computer is always plugged in, but tv etc. not so.

I make sure my phone and kindle fire are charged before I go to bed. Occasionally I put the dishwasher on at bedtime. I leave the tv on standby overnight and the washing machine and tumble dryer are plugged in but not switched on.

We are the same as Buffeebee. everything is left plugged in permanently, phones and tablets are charged overnight. We often load and run the dishwasher just before we go to bed, but I never do washing or drying overnight - too noisy. It would drive me nuts to unplug/replug things every day, and our TV loses settings and channels if it's unplugged or if there's a power cut. We regularly change the smoke alarm batteries and our electric account is usually in credit so we'll take our chances.

Do it over night.im on ecconomy 7.it costs less

Economy 7 is not economical if the house burns down!

Me too. Not to do so makes no sense, not financially, environmentally or for safety reasons.

Only had kettle, microwave, laptop & tv on this morning. Washer/drier plugged in & socket switched off, never use it overnight or if I'm going out. Chargers are never used overnight or when I'm out.

Only things permanently plugged in are SKY box, tv, cordless phone & Broadband box. TV is unplugged when I go away. If course fridge/freezer is plugged in which idiot switches it off unless it's empty

Smoke detector is "hard wired" & yes it works!!!

My OH unplugs everything at night but not the freezer, fridge or phone. It would seem that it saves on the electric. All other things are charged when needs must.

Buffybee our last dishwasher went on fire at night time, luckly smoke alarms went off and thankfully we hadn't yet gone to bed.

2 xTV, 2xdvd, CCTV, phone, laptop, reclining chair, Lifeline, digital photo frame, display cabinet lights, kettle, toaster/George Foreman alternating,
microwave, bedside lamps x2, will soon be adding Christmas tree to the list, oh, fridge freezer!

Forgot washing machine and tumble dryer.

You do realise that you are adding to the ozone layer and depleting the NG reserves, don't you?

stree, as midgey also asked, what on earth is a "cheese sharpener" and what are "ear lights" and how do they help you find your dogs in the cellar? I feel there is a gaping hole in my education somewhere.

I know about sharp flavoured cheeses such as cheddar but how is this done electrically? Do you give the cheese a zap and tell it to sharpen up or else? And the images I have of you looking for your dogs in the cellar with lights beaming out of your ears is getting more bizarre by the minute. ?

Gabriella, they`re not all switched on!

I do not charge appliances overnight as I am afraid of them catching fire. Also, I wouldn't run a tumble dryer or washing machine overnight.

At this very moment (11am), I've got plugged in:

2 mobile 'phones, the washing machine(on), tumble drier (on), 3 lamps, computer, 2 printers, 3 cordless handsets for the landline, speakers for the PC, a cordless Dyson, 1 TV, dvd player, dishwasher(on), a floor lamp, a hairdryer, fish tank pump, electric tin-opener, toaster, kettle, sink waste-disposal unit, iron (been using)

Forgot to mention a 'fridge, oven, hob and freezer!

Forgot to mention daughter`s hi-fi the other day. Like I said in my own defence, they`re not all switched on, but they have to stay plugged in as I find it difficult to get down and unplug most of thjem.
