Germans Taking Fewer Showers in Response to Cost of Living Crisis

Summit News:

Germans are taking fewer showers in response to energy shortages and the cost of living crisis, it has been revealed.

A poll conducted by INSA on behalf of Bild newspaper finds that almost two thirds of Germans are now taking shorter showers in response to numerous government appeals to do so.

62% of respondents to the poll said they had reduced their shower time and are showing less frequently compared to just a few weeks ago, while 35% say they haven’t changed their cleaning routine.

Unsurprisingly, those in the lowest income group said they had changed their behavior more significantly than any other group.

Almost half of respondents (45%) also said they were making preparations for a difficult winter, such as buying an emergency power generator. more here

  1. You can very easily take a shower with 10 gallons of water. At 5 cents a gallon, 50 cents of water and, what, a dollar of expensive German natural gas to heat the water? A buck fiddy for a shower. 45 bucks a month, showering daily. If they now take a shower once every 3 days, that’s $30 savings to smell like a pig.

    Things I bet they’re not cutting, a $120/mo cell phone bill and $150/mo cable TV propaganda. Heck, I’d cut that crap first and then sit in the shower for an hour per day and still save $30/month.
