The Snuggie And 5 Other Vaguely Green As-Seen-On-TV Products

The Snuggie: Who needs a sweater when you've got a blanket with sleeves? Better yet, who needs to turn up the heat...? Questions still to answered in assessing "greeness": materials ("uper soft, thick, luxurious fleece" doesn't tell us much), manufacturing process, place of origin, and end of life. JennyReviews took a test drive.

Honestly, my biggest worry with these things wouldn't be fire, but static discharge. Ouch!

[jalyn]

These ads are funny. Whether it's kitchen gadgets or this, the struggling idiots using the old brand stuff can't open a jar for the life of them, can't keep a blanket on

[jalyn]

and, like me, a struggling idiot trying to post this.......

More hippie clothes is all I see that is marketed towards liberal gilt regarding Global Warming or is it now Global Cooling.

When are we going to address the real issue which is World Population as the planet cannot support 6 billion people? If we had just 3 billion people we could cut all polution by 50% without doing anything.

Hippie?

Seriously are you that backwards?

Hippie?

I can promise you this: the people buying this item are the same people who send money to the TeeVeePastor and vote for the "ConservatiiveCompassionate" party. Trust me on this one.

Let's start by euthanizing those who can't spell.

Gilt? As in covered with gold?

Polution?

Were you the guy holding the "Get a brain morans" sign?

[gastoys]

Thanks for the spelling check. It's not my spelling because I went to the best Liberal Schools, its that my brain moves faster than my hands can press the keys.

Snuggies are petroleum based crap.
A wool afghan gets softer with use.

And the commercial shows people wearing them around a fire pit with those big sleeves.

[antaeus]

The Snuggie campaign is hysterical. These people look like the cultists who committed mass suicide in a San Diego mansion in the '90s.

And what's with the Sunggie-wearing granny who is knitting? What is she knitting? A bikini? Why can't she knit an afghan, which she could then leave to her grandchildren? Nobody wants to inherit a Snuggie.

The older man looks like a monk LOL.

[Fernando]

Ha! You beat me to it! I've been saying that since the first time I saw the commercial. They do look like Heaven's Gate cultists!

[JScott]

I'll skip the shamwow, that guy doing the commercial is kinda creepy (and EXACTLY the same as I saw him at the auto show booth demo) I have plenty of good rags for cleanup. Snuggie, they've had it for YEARS, it's called a blanket. or a sweater. Greenest of all just don't buy any of that stuff to clutter up your life.

[shengirl]

a few comments on the Snuggie-- I'd worry those long, floppy, fleecy sleeves could be a real hazard around open flame. Boy does the family look dorky, sitting in the bleachers and wearing them at the supposed sporting event. And the brown one makes you look like a Franciscan monk. I believe they're on sale now, tho, two for the price of one. If they keep you warm, fine, just be very careful around fire.

[RobertaInCT]

Brown ones?.................It does not come in brown.

[Patriot68]

lol man me n teh missus want a snuggie. :D
