Whatever about turning the thermostat down to save money, that sounds a bit risky if it gets cold \ damp... pipes, mould... you'd want to be sure of the fundamentals of your property of that could cost you more in the long run.
Just turn up at the end and shake a few hands outside the Church. Then you don't even have to go to the actual funeral.

Almost certain to save you a few bob:-
1. Don’t do the Lotto. (It’s another tax, stupid)
2. Don’t do Euromillions. (Odds are the worst available anywhere).
3. Don’t buy any raffle tickets. (You don’t know where your money will end up)
4. Don’t do any gambling whatsoever. (Hypocritically, I love the gee gees + football).
