“Did I leave the lights on?” 💡

You know the feeling…you’re heading off to work or dropping the kids off at school and you think…”Did I leave the iron on?”

What are the most common worries we have after we’ve left our homes?

The Sun says they’re:

  • “Did I leave the door unlocked?”
  • “Did I leave a window open?”
  • “Did I leave something plugged in?”
  • “Did I leave the iron on?”
  • “Did I turn the oven off?”
  • “Did I turn the burner on the stove off the whole way?”
  • “Did I leave the sink on?”
  • “Is my hair curler or straightener still on?”
  • “Did I leave something valuable sitting out in plain view?”
  • “Did I leave the gate open?” 

Leaving the heat, lights and TV on also made the top 20…what’s yours?
