"But these are dryer balls, and you put them in with your laundry.
"Instead of the clothes getting stuck together, this helps to separate the clothes and distribute them around the tumble dryer better.

"This means the clothes are able to dry faster. They can reduce drying time by up to 20 percent.

"So for every hour you use your tumble dryer, you could be saving up to 20c an hour."
