The Snuggie is actually teh SLANKET knock-off!!


And I got 2 knock-off Snuggies for Christmas. I'm wearing the one my dad got me backwards...(yes, I know, I'm wearing my "blanket with sleeves" as a robe...lol) and it's soft and cozy. The other one (given to me by my in-laws) is scratchy and was put right back in the box to be regifted!

Plus 30+ people at a super-long table, all clad in Snuggies was a pretty surreal sight.
haha that's actually pretty funny. I'd be highly amused.

What a cute story! You should send it to the Snuggie people. Maybe they'll feature it on their site.

That's what I thought. I have a Slanket and I love it. It's so much thicker and softer than the Snuggie. I got one for my husband and sister for Christmas. They're ugly as all hell, but so warm.

I feel as though the Slanket is choking me. I can't wear it because there is way too much material near the neck and it's really heavy-even if I let it lay flat. I'm going to ask a friend to chop about a foot off the top so that I can try and wear it.

My boyfriend and I both received Snuggies at the family Yankee swap this Christmas. He actually slept in his that night and loved it. I'm thinking of sewing a giant letter on the front of each of ours (we would each have our first initial), just because I have a weird sense of humor and the thought of us both sitting on the couch with our personalized Snuggies cracks me up. Kind of like superheroes, or Thing 1 and Thing 2...

OMG. What you've all be waiting for - a Snuggie embroidered with your letters!

Y'all can do what you want but I will hunt down any Delta Chi that purchases, owns, or contemplates a lettered snuggie. And that is a promise.

I am currently wearing a Snuggie. It was a gag gift for my mom- and I have (sadly) fallen in love with its warmth. *sigh*

It's ugly and I don't foresee NHQ "licensing" them for various reasons.

I wear letters so I can show my pride outside of the house. I don't really see the need to own what is essentially a blanket with my letters on them, and I love my letters on everything!

lmao I saw that a few weeks ago and died.

Anyway, I am very disappointed in my former school district (Plano ISD) for having Snuggie Day today!
