'Snuggie' availability?

jme467

Hey guys,

At the risk of sounding ridiculous, I need to get my hands on a snuggie in Limerick! It's a birthday present for my girlfriend who loves them.

Anyone know of anywhere in the city that still does the real one, or the slanket?

Thanks for the quick reply

Tried them both on Tuesday, and unfortunately they've sold off all their stock. Thinking of just biting the bullet and buying one online!

My sister got one for Christmas on my mother, I'll ask where she got it from later when shes around.

I have seen those things in Pennys hanging up on the discount rails. Heavily discounted because "normally" people don't want them.

Pennys apparently

They don't have in the city, but I might give the crescent a call. Found a knock-off 'snuggle' in one of the Indian shops in town, but it looks like it'd fall apart in my hands, and I can't find a single reference to it on the web :P Thanks a million guys

Might be worth trying the Co-op store in Raheen.

They had them before but I'm just not sure if they had the Snuggle or Snuggie Brand.

Had the cheap nasty one that graduated to the Cats Kennel outside.

I'm sure your missus would also prefer diamonds... Lots of women like diamonds, I'd go with the diamonds

Sorry I can't be any help with the snuggie issue

What is a Snuggie? I haven't a clue what it is but for some strange reason I'm starting to want one.

jme467

Just gonna bite the bullet and buy one of the double ones online. She'll love the fact I got a double one

It's essentially a blanket with sleeves. Sounds stupid, but they're actually quite comfortable....apart from the enormous amount of static they generate

Here is a perfect video description of what a Snuggie is!

Btw, OP - Dunnes on the Childers Road also.

BobMc

you'll be needing one of them over the next few days

Tried one on once and went WTF!! exactly like wearing a dressing gown backwards but without being able to close it Horrid Horrid things that remind me
of those paper gowns they give you going in for an operation in hospital.
