I was at Bed Bath and Beyond today and bought a Snuggie on impulse.
Please feel free to mock me mercilessly for my weakness.

1. My 7 y/o keeps asking for one
If I see one on clearance I may be swayed....

I will not mock the purchasing choices of a DUer - if you're happy, I'm happy!

:hi:

2. no mocking
Hi,
I bought one mostly for the giggles, but I do use it sometimes when crashing on the couch with the remote in my hand. Did it come with the booklight too? No mocking from me!

Peace

3. Yes, I got the light too which I find oddly fascinating.
My only regret is they didn't have the blood red one. I had this thought of answering the door on Saturday morning wearing a pentagram necklace and a red snuggie when the Mormons showed up to offer me some "reading material".

Hi,
Too funny! The Walgreen's only had blue when I got mine, but I still feel like a cult member, too bad they didn't come with hoods.

Peace

4. No mocking from me, either. It's a blanket for goodness sakes.
What's wrong with a snuggie anyway? It's not evil, is it?

9. TableMate I kept sliding after it touched your body
several people were cut in half. With the II, they removed the razor sharp blade and the demonic possession.

7. I have one. My dad bought a whole bunch of them and everyone else in the family
laughed at him. I took one. I love it on a cold night.

8. I bought two for my kids.
I got mine from QVC so they're called "slankets" and they are the original ones from the college dude who invented the silly thing. My kids love them! QVC is my secret weakness for middle-of-the-night viewing...

11. My cats seem to think it makes my lap more comfy.
Except for Mischief. Mischief has a thing about fleece and will go out of his way to avoid walking or laying on anything fleece.

12. There's going to be a Snuggie pub crawl in Denver
It's a few weeks away, but you must be wearing a Snuggie to join the group. Why not be cozy/comfy while enjoying a few beverages.

Snug away!

13. You should form a Snuggie Cult
And have a big party where 50 people come to your house dressed in dark red snuggies. Or go to the beach with 50 friends in dark snuggies and have a bon fire. LOL1s!
