I’m embarrassed to say that when I first bought my Snuggie at Costco, I thought it was a robe-blanket… and wore it like that for a few days. Then I saw a lively conversation on a friend’s Facebook page about them and figured out that I was supposed to wear it like a hospital robe. With the weather in the teens this past week in Houston, I’m seldom without my snuggie close by and proudly looking like Dumbledore sans wand. After seeing the commercial on television, I saw additional usages of the snuggie although you’ll never see me wearing mine outside of the home. Regardless of how they look (silly), they’re amazingly functional for keeping you warm without limiting your range of motion like a normal blanket.
While there are many parodies on the snuggie, it’s getting more and more popular. Because my older son likes to sleep with mine, I’m considering getting another one. (again, for home usage only)
