Broken Snuggie

The Grunter insists The Snuggie™ that Granny sent him is broken.
How is the multi-million dollar blanket defective, I asked him?
“Air passes through it and it doesn’t keep me warm.”
I’ve never wanted to wear a blanket so I wasn’t that attracted to their biggest marketing feature. (Remarkably similar to a poncho…which I also never wanted to wear…even though it seems to have made a fashion comeback.)
Admittedly, the cheetah print is very fashion-forward.
But seriously…what’s the point of a blanket that doesn’t keep you warm?
Anyone else have a broken Snuggie or did The Grunter get the only defective one?
He’s got it on backwards! It’s not supposed to be walked around in
) It’s a blanket with sleeves. You sit with it with the slit in the back, but the sleeves allow you to keep covered up and read, sew, or whatever. My kids got them from Santa and we weren’t sure either, but the slit definitely goes in the back!
@Jen–Thanks for the hot tip on the blanket!! I will alert The Grunter of his blanket error pronto. In his defense, he wasn’t really wearing it around the house except when he walked into my room and I laughed at him and then took the picture.
I know I’m wearing it backwards. Nontheless it is still a cheaply made blanket that doesn’t retain any heat.
It would probably be nice if the room one is sitting in is already warm, but my room temperature hovers somewhere between Siberia and Pluto. I can feel air pass through it.
They have these for dogs now, too. I could just see the photos of your wieners in cheetah and zebra print. Then they could lay beside Grunter and keep him warm.
