I do that every winter - not because of the high prices for heating but because heating gets my skin dry. So I keep it around 18-19° and wear a jacket/warm clothes and drink hot tee and have a hot-water bottle. I also have a wearable blanket which is just super comfy.

A humidifier will combat the dryness if you'd rather be wearing only a t-shirt.

Humidifiers are things that I will only run if I have to. I would much rather turn the heat down than run a unit that has to be refilled with de-ionized water constantly and blows moisture into whatever it is next to, and makes a huge mess if knocked over. It also has to be cleaned constantly because even with RO/DI water in it mold still grows.
