Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

If you’re looking to bag a bargain, the good news is now’s the time to shop – as Amazon’s Spring Sale 2023 is in full swing. This online sales extravaganza started on Monday at 6pm and is running until midnight tonight (29 March), so there’s still plenty of opportunities for finding big reductions.

Whether you’re looking to stock up on household essentials such as dishwasher tablets or fancy buying a new air fryer, there are savings to spot across all shopping categories. Here at IndyBest, we’re keeping a keen eye on the best deals on everything from TVs and laptops to tech, Amazon devices, and home appliances.

Plus, you can follow our Spring Sale live blog to see the latest price drops as they land.

Even though spring has sprung, electric blankets are still a popular purchase, because they can keep you cosy during chilly nights for less cash than switching on the heating. As the cost-of-living crisis continues, practical, energy-efficient purchases are a priority.

So, we were pleased to spot a saving of almost 50 per cent on an electric blanket in Amazon’s Spring Sale. Read on for everything we know about this cosy, cost-cutting buy.

Cosi Home heated throw electric blanket: Was £99.99, now £50.94, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

There’s now 49 per cent off the price of this Cosi Home heated throw electric blanket, with the almost half-price saving taking the cost right down to just over £50. This electric blanket comes complete with nine heat settings and a nine-hour timer, while an automatic cut-off function ensures it will switch off after a set amount of time. The remote control and cable are completely detachable, too.

Heating elements are found throughout the throw, so you can snuggle up and keep cosy during all seasons. Plus, the extra-large 160cm x 130cm fleece blanket is big enough for two people, and we think the grey shade would work well with different decor and bedding options. From a practicality point of view, Amazon estimated in November 2022 that this electric blanket costs as little as 4p per hour to use.
