Ok, so this saves $17.2 million per year in the UK. There are 23.6 million households in the UK. This means that the average household saves $0.72 per year!!!

I don't know if the folks who calculated the cost savings figured in the price difference between incandescent bulbs and their CFL/LED replacements, but I can assure you that it is far more than $0.72.

Nice, isn’t it? 72¢ = 45p at present. So that’s one 58-gram candy bar per year.
