For Snooze Button Lovers Only

Do you set your alarm WAAAAAAAAAY ahead, just so you can hit the snooze alarm multiple times?

I do.

 

[SDFgirl]

Yep. I set my alarm for 6:00am and usually get up around 6:45. I love to hit the snooze!

 

[Dismom+two]

MY alarm is set for 5:45 and I get up at 6:12....I LOVE my snooze button!!

Another vote for her too.

I set 2 alarms to make sure I do get up.

I have one set for 5:05am, and another set for 5:40am, and I get up at about 5:55am. I set 2 because I've been known to turn off the alarm in my sleep - that's a problem!!

 

[KristiKelly]

Yes, my alarm is set for 6:30 and I get up either 7:06 or 7:15 - depends on how tired I am. Of course if it's 7:15, then the kids really have to hustle.

Ditto except I get up at 6:42 - lol Mine goes off at 6, 6:06, 6:12, 6:18, 6:24, 6:30, 6:36 and 6:42 - DH thinks I am nuts - lol

I'm of the 'set the alarm to when I should get up, and then snooze till I'm running so late that I know I'm going to hurt myself at least once getting out the door' cult. Sometimes my wife will push me off the bed so I stop pushing the snooze.

Snooze rules! However, it can backfire. I have been known to hit snooze so many times, it stops coming on at all. I guess there is a limit on how many times I can hit snooze before it gives up on trying to get my lazy butt out of bed
I don't know it anyone else's alarm clock has a "snooze limit", but I refuse to get another alarm clock. I got it for Christmas when I was in the 6th grade. Thats been OVER 20 years
I feel a strong sense of loyalty to my alarm clock, even though we have a love/hate relationship.

I don't know it anyone else's alarm clock has a "snooze limit",

I think most the the alarms I've had (and they would never make 20 years with the beatings they take from me) have had about a one hour limit. After that the clock pretty much says "Let's stop this charade, shall we?"

 

[nsyncraider17]

I usually hit the snooze button for about half an hour. My roommate is not a fan of this habit.

After that the clock pretty much says "Let's stop this charade, shall we?"

OMG, I didn't think it was possible to laugh so hard at 8:30 in the morning. Duckfan, that was hilarious!

 

[jesszac610]

yes! for 45 minutes every Am! I swear that 9 minutes I get between snoozes is the best sleep of the night!!! Also, which does every one prefer-Snoozing to the radio or to the bus backing up????? Mine definatly the radio though sometimes those Am DJ"S are kinda annoying!

 

[hlbtimes2]

Add me to the list! I use it as my wake up time. Other people get up and sit with a cup of coffee. I lay in bed and catch a few more z's. It works for me.

Except this morning. I work up an hour before the alarm and couldnt go back to sleep. I did what I NEVER do- I got up. I fold some laundry and came on here. I'll regret that decision later today. LOL

 

[I'mNoPrince]

I have my clock set for 10 ahead of time as well. This is all for DW more then me as I get up at 6:00am anyhow . I will hit the snooze as a reminder to get going or off the DIS.

 

[reelmom]

My DH and I have daily arguments about this. I set my time way fast to catch some "extra" sleep.

 

[salmoneous]

Do you set your alarm WAAAAAAAAAY ahead, just so you can hit the snooze alarm multiple times?

I do.

Just curious how many of you that do this share a room with someone... If so, understand that they might not appreciate it

PS - You can add my DW to this list of folks who snooze 30+ minutes every morning...

 

[Kitty 34]

Yes, I do. I hit the snooze about 3-4 times......wakes me right up then!!!

 

[acadia1960]

No I get right up when the alarm clock goes off. My DH is the bad toad with the alarm clock. He sets it for 45 minutes early, and & have to nudge, kick, & yell every time, that darn things goes off. He cannot get up without my help.

 

[Buckalew11]

I do. And the time is now 10:59 and my bedside alarm clock says 11:29. I am VERY bad!!!! Oh and DH is gone in the a.m. when I hit snooze. Otherwise, in respect for his sleep, I get up right away!

 

[Alyssa88]

Oh I am really bad with the snooze button.

In order for me to wake up and be "okay", I need to start preparing myself like an hour and a half in advance. I actually use two alarms on my alarm clock and two on my phone (sometimes more- I can get up to 5). I press snooze about a billion times.

For example, this am I had one alarm set for 4:40 and the other set for 6 on my alarm clock. Then on my phone, I had one for 5:20 and the final one 6:20. I pressed snooze on each one except the last- which was when I had to get up and get ready for work.

I am a really deep sleeper so sometimes I don't wake up for all of them, until later.

I have my own place . . . but when I did shar my room she was similar.
