'It's like we're back in the 18th century': Father, 53, brings in 'no electricity at home' policy and tells family to wear HEAD LAMPS at night to combat cost-of-living crisis as their bills double to £320 per monthChavdar Todorov (left and bottom right), 53, also picked up multiple £8.48 head torches, and he, his wife and two children now use them to get around the house after dark. He was prompted to make the drastic changes when his electricity bill arrived in June and had more than doubled in price to £320 per month. Now he, his wife Moda (left and top right), 49, and their children - Teo, 14, and Nicole, 20 - hope to save as much as they can on electricity costs by keeping usage to a minimum to reduce their annual £3.8k bill. Heating can only be used once a week - all other times they keep warm by wrapping up in coats and blankets. The couple described the new household rules as 'being back in the 18th century', but said: 'We can only do everything we can.'
