I'm a snuggiologist

My dd6 wanted one so her grandma got her one for easter. She loves it but Daddy always steals it. So she bought him his own for xmas! He loves laying on the couch with his laptop and his snuggie

I ordered a pizza delivery a couple of nights ago, and when the delivery guy came, he was laughing so hard that he nearly dropped my pizza! Turns out that on the delivery before mine, the guy that ordered it came to the door wearing a zebra Snuggi and a baseball hat! I wouldn't want one, because I live in the South, and I'm never cold enough!

My youngest son went to the Denver Broncos game this past Sunday, and a group of about five people a couple of rows in front of him were all wearing assorted Snuggis (over their Gore-Tex and down parkas). He said it was hysterical! Maybe Snuggi Corp. should check this out to prove that people actually do wear Snuggis to sporting events!

I have two cats and I was thinking of getting one of them a Snuggie (the extra small dog size would fit her perfectly). I would only get one because I only have one normal cat. The other cat would scratch the retinas out from both of my eyeballs if I ever tried to put a single article of clothing on her.[/QUOTE]

This sounds more normal for a cat to me. (Most cats I've met would not take well to being dressed. Even if they did, they'd find a way to get theri revenge later. )

Verily, I, too, am a disciple of the Snuggie.

Add me to the list! I was just given the Breast Cancer pink Snuggie as a gift (love the free booklight too!) and I cannot believe how warm it is!! It's pretty long so I don't walk around with it on, but it's great for when I'm on the recliner or couch watching tv!

I'm so happy to hear that so many had a snuggie Christmas. It is amazing to hear all the first hand accounts of skeptics and how they were so quickly converted upon having that heavenly polyester fleece brush against their bodies. I am wearing mine as I type.

I'm sorry, but I got a cheetah print Snuggie for Christmas from my in-laws, and I just don't get it. It's not soft and cuddly at all! Maybe I'm just spoiled, because this is my usual blankie: http://www.restorationhardware.com/rh/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod1400029&navAction=jump&navCount=1 .
It's incredibly soft and warm, and no, it doesn't have sleeves, but I don't care! It's wonderful! And when I want something less heavy, I have a
pink n-a-p cuddle blankie from Brookstone, that's super soft and cuddly as well.
The Snuggie, not so much...too thin, not very soft, and definitely not warm enough for me. But, I have to keep it so I don't insult the in-laws, or I would offer it to one of you!!!

I got dd a very soft LSU snuggie from Wal-greens here in New Orleans. She loves it!

I got Snuggies for my DH and DD as a joke gift and they both LOVE them!! I was cracking up all Christmas day watching my husband walk around wearing his Snuggie. My DD likes wearing it while she is sitting at the computer. Who knew?

It's a strange phenomenon, this snuggie effect. It's almost like the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers, if it were a light hearted holiday comedy, rather than a sci fi/horror movie.

My best friend makes purses, aprons, tote bags and now she makes snuggies. Before Christmas we were in Wal-Mart and she asked me what color snuggie I wanted and I told her I didn't want a snuggie.

She made a couple for people at the dance school and they love them. One mom said her DD slept in hers.

Santa brought Snuggies for both of my boys and my husband got one for me. DH said not to get him one because he thought they were stupid and he would never use it. So, the other night after going to bed I went downstairs for water and guess who's lying on the couch in a Snuggie? Yep, him! He said he was cold and nothing else was available. Um, there were two fleece blankets right next to him. Says he didn't see those....

 

[Angelhalo]

Don't buy into those Amazon reviews. They're haters. They complain that it is like a robe, but wide open in the back. They don't understand. Of course it is wide open in the back. It is a BLANKET. Blankets do not close in the back. They complain of the wide sleeves. Me personally, the sleeves give me this feeling like I'm a well respected cult leader. They complain of the thinness. I will admit that it is not a goose down comforter you are wearing, but it definitely is a soft fleece that keeps the draft out. So, I would reconsider. If you are worried about any potentially harmful side effects, then get one for your daughter first. That's what kids are for. Trust me when I tell you this. Your life will be transformed in ways you could not imagine. In the immortal words of Pedro - "All of your wildest dreams will come true".

OMG I don't know if I have ever laughed so hard in my life over something I read on the interwebs! I have tears streaming down my face and my DH just walked in and said "OH MY!"

I got a snuggie for Christmas and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! I am a believer!!

Excuse me...

When the wheel was invented, did you say, "It's just a square missing its corners. When ice cubes were invented did you think, "It's just water that got too cold". When Ewoks were invented, did you declare, " It's just dwarves in furry outfits, created for the sole purpose of toy sales".

The "phenomenon" is because the Snuggie is the first great invention of the 21st century. It happens to be a giant leap forward for all mankind. Do you even remember a world before Snuggies? I do. I remember having to keep my blanket drawn below my armpit region if I wished to read a book in bed. And I couldn't see the print very well, as I didn't have my complimentary book light before Snuggies came into being. I remember days long ago when I would wake up in the morning and find my blankets were on the other side of the bed, or worse, had fallen to the floor. That is no longer an issue with the Snuggie. In the past, I would have to coordinate a new outfit each morning. Now, I simply drape my Snugggie over my naked body and head off to work. The combination of the warmth that I get from the front and the open breeziness of my naked backside is absolutely delightful on Spring days.

So, it is not just a backwards bath robe. It is the culmination of thousands of years of human development and ingenuity.

You know -now that I think about it -our church is kind of cold (lots of stone and brick with marble floors)
Do you think anyone would notice if I started wearing one to church??
That would save me the pesky chore of trying to find matching heels, skirt, blouse.

As long as you wear SOMETHING underneath, it would be OK. Just remember they're open in the back, like hospital gowns. Come to think of it, at least wear the skirt. We don't need to see your bahookie in church!

And I forgot to tell you that my DS14 really wanted one for Christmas, so his aunt got him one. And got another for the adult white elephant thing we do -- and it was the most stolen gift we had! I keep telling my DS17, who is a hater, that he's going to end up wanting one. I think I'm going to look for that microfiber one someone mentioned.

 

[OK!]

It's a strange phenomenon, this snuggie effect. It's almost like the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers, if it were a light hearted holiday comedy, rather than a sci fi/horror movie.

It's Invasion of the Dignity Snatchers! (but only applicable to the poor people in the commercial (especially the dude "raising the roof" on the sofa in his Snuggie), not to you all ) I actually got my dad's dog a Snuggie for Christmas; I had to run out late on Christmas Eve to Walgreens for something and they had Max's size, so Max got himself a Snuggie. So far, he seems to like it OK. I think it helps calm him down (he's kind of a neurotic mess and gets the shakes when he's upset about something) and obviously helps keep him warm, so win-win.
