A WOMAN has revealed a 'game-changing' hack, that dries her laundry quickly, for just 9p.
During the cold winter months, drying clothes indoor can seem like an impossible task.
Hanging them out to dry on an airer can take days, whereas popping your clothes in the tumble dryer can end up being pretty pricey.
Drying clothes indoors can also lead to mould and damp, due to the moisture released into the air whilst clothes are drying.
Some popular options people use to dry their clothes quicker are purchasing either a heated airer of a dehumidifier.
One woman who trialled both took to the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook group to reveal which option she thought was best.

She said: "This is my dehumidifier I got from Scewfix £109.
"Best thing I ever bought. Absolute game-changer.
“It drys our clothes, in a house of five in three hours.
"We always had steamy windows and a few mould spots were coming.

“Not a bit of condensation since we’ve had it and it’s very cheap on the electric.
"It says it’s 3p an hour and it really hasn’t affected my electric usage.
“Highly recommend switching to a dehumidifier after using a heated airer for some time."
To use the dehumidifier to help dry your clothes, simply place it near your clothes airer, and the device will suck the moisture off your clothes.
Sharing advice on how to use the dehumidifier, the Facebook user added: "“When you first get the machine run it 24 hours a day for about two weeks. After that use it to dry clothes and for a couple hours after a shower etc.
"By the way, it doesn’t work as well if the windows are open. Windows have to be closed.”
