Yeah you made a mistake by not waiting. Octopus Avro tariff was a small amount below the cap whereas bulb are right on the cap although from April they will all be on the same cap.

Have you considered applying to your water supplier as they may have a scheme? I am on the Big Difference Scheme with Severn Trent, this cuts my water bill from £25 a month to £3 but you have to be unmetered.

I also used a meter around the house and any plug that was draining electric I either switched to a smart plug or unplugged it. I have saved with this and other methods over 80KWH which is another £16. Hard times
