The Snuggie – it’s like a friend repellent! *Updated with giveaway winner!*

February 19, 2009 by Jane  
Filed under Jane, video

I’m only half joking when I say I have a few friends who are thisclose to giving up on our friendship* because I own a Snuggie. They just don’t understand. The Snuggie… um… rocks?

Eh, see for yourself:

*Updated to add: One such friend has indicated that my attendance at a Snuggie Pub Crawl would absolutely, positively be grounds for friendship termination.

**Updated once again to add: IT’S A SNUGGIE GIVEAWAY! How would you like to have a Snuggie to call your own!? I’m giving away one dark blue Snuggie in size, well… ONESIZEFITSALL to one lucky reader!

Congrats to the winner – Terra!**

(Disclaimer: The author of this blog is not responsible for the loss of friends due to the winner’s wearing of the Snuggie while talking on the phone, enjoying a snack, roasting marshmallows, cheering at a sporting event, attending a Snuggie Pub Crawl or otherwise looking like a tool in a backwards robe.)

    thanks for the entry

    When I was in middle- or high school, my mom had something called a snug sack, which was like a sleeping bag with sleeves. It was great! I’d love to have a snuggie to keep warm in when I’m watching TV or reading. We don’t have central heat and our concrete house can get pretty chilly in the winter.

    My wife and I crack up at that commercial every time! The funny thing is my 6 year old really wants one for some reason! Maybe because he would look like a young jedi in training.

  4. Carla Spence says:

    hahah! that’s too funny!

  5. Tammie says:

    I have a theory that stipulates spouses should be included with friends when it comes to “snuggie-envy” – and I would love to put that theory test. :)

  6. Aniela R. says:

    Ha, those photos are priceless! My best friend bought a snuggie, and I gave him such a hard time about it — until he actually let me try it out, and I became an instant convert. Would love the chance to win one myself and join the snuggie cult :)

    Thanks!

  25. Kathleen says:

    I’d love to win a Snuggie. It would totally embarass my teenage sons to be wearing it when their friends come over, plus my husband loves to turn down the heat all the time and I am usually FREEZING!!!

  30. TechyDad says:

    I’d love to win a Snuggie. I was thinking of restarting an old Infomercial Review site I used to run and this would be perfect to review for it!

  31. Love you video. I think my hubs and I could both fit in one snuggie. Hmmm…

  32. gahome2mom says:

    My 13 year old daughter would love this. Thanks. (Saw it posted on Twitter.)

  33. Donna K says:

    Count me in please.

  34. okaat says:

    Funny video! My husband wanted to get me one but we watched the video together and he just laughed. He said its not an evening gown or to wear cleaning the house, but he agreed to snuggle with me if i get one. The color is perfect for our family room.

  35. Judy says:

    I think i need a Snuggie to further embarass by kids. I’ll just sit on the couch with it wraped around me when they bring their friends over!

  36. Oh no. I posted your first comment to this post, I think before you decided to give one away. Now I’m registered to win, so I am safe to post again with no further repercusions. I won’t win two will I? Just kidding. Wow, 230+ posts. That’s great! I am giving away a gift pack to my 100th subscriber to my site, and it’s taking forever. Maybe I need to give away a Snuggie? No! I won’t. ! You can’t make me.

  37. Linda says:

    This would be nice to have for watching TV when the weather is cool/cold.

  38. Kathleen yohanna says:

    I can sew so I can shorten the sleeves. That video is just too funny. Thanks for the giveaway.

  39. Heather C says:

    What a hoot! :) I’d love to join the Snuggie Cult — I keep the thermostat at 63, so it’s pretty chilly at night watching TV.

  46. Suanne Giddings says:

    I really thought I wanted one of these since I am cold most of the time. I think with a few amendments I might make this thing work. Thanks for a fun giveaway!
