Most Singaporeans own a smartphone. Today, many of us are also transitioning to a smart home—IoT, right? But life-savviness goes beyond gadgets and apps.

According to authors Melissa Tosetti and Kevin Gibbons of “Living the Savvy Life”, being life-savvy is about spending and saving wisely. That is, knowing exactly when to spend and when to save.

 

3 home hacks to help you save money 

Life-savviness begins from home. If you spend most of the day out at work and return home only late at night, these simple hacks are for you. 

#1. Skip the fancy coffee machine.

Upgrade your wind-down ritual instead.

If you're rarely home in the day, that $1,000 espresso machine will just be sitting there. Instead, invest in calming herbal teas or Japanese sencha to help you wind down the night. That’s better for sleep — and your wallet, too.

#2. Avoid overbuying groceries on weekdays. 
Curate weekend treats instead.

Most working adults dine out or order in during the week, so fresh groceries often go to waste. Rather than overstocking your fridge, save that money and indulge in premium food or artisan ingredients for your weekend meals.

#3. Why pay peak rates for electricity?

Switch to a time-of-use plan like LifeSavvy24.

By the time you’re home to enjoy the aircon, turn on the music, and toast yourself a snack, is the world already sound asleep? 
If your home comes alive only after dark, a time-of-use electricity plan, such as Senoko Energy LifeSavvy24, is perfect for you. Why? So you can take advantage of its off-peak rate at night. 

 

Save on electricity bills with LifeSavvy.

Senoko Energy LifeSavvy electricity plan is a time-of-use electricity plan designed for homeowners who are out during the day and active at home during the night. 

Here’s how the LifeSavvy12 or LifeSavvy24 plan works: The electricity rate you pay depends on your time of use. Rates come in two categories: Peak (7am – 11pm) and off-peak (11pm – 7pm) times.

  • You pay lower electricity rates during off-peak times (11pm–7am) when public demand is low.
  • The more you shift your electricity usage to off-peak times, the more you save.
  • You pay lower electricity rates during off-peak times (11pm–7am) when public demand is low.
  • The more you shift your electricity usage to off-peak times, the more you save. 

Ready for this? With LifeSavvy, the potential savings on your electricity bills can go up to over $600* in two years. 

* Based on a 24-month LifeSavvy plan with monthly usage of 430kWh. Compared with Q4 2025 SP tariff of 30.03¢/kWh (including GST). Savings include a rebate of $160.

 

Here’s how to maximise your LifeSavvy24 savings

Up your life-savviness. Down-size your electricity bills. Make the most of our peak and off-peak plan. Here are some easy ways to shift your energy usage and save even more:

  • Run energy-intensive appliances at night.
    Use electricity when it’s cheapest. Do laundry or run the dishwasher after 11pm. And yes, please use the water-heater for your shower.
  • Charge your EV while you sleep
    A typical electric car takes about 8 hours for a full charge. So go for overnight charging (11pm – 7am) and stretch your off-peak savings. 
  • Use smart plugs
    Schedule auto turn-on and turn-off times for home appliances. With a smart plug, you can preset the aircon to turn on after 11pm and turn off at 7am.
