As the cold weather starts to creep in, we’re all becoming increasingly aware that summer is over for the year and it’s time to start getting snuggly for winter – and these £14 ‘snuddies’ from Primark are proving the perfect thing.
Shoppers have been quick to snap up the blanket and hoodie crossover – known as a ‘snuddie’ – since they’ve been returned to shelves this month.
The item flew off shelves in Primark stores last winter, with many shoppers keen to get their hands on the sought-after winter warmers in between lockdowns.
The must-have item comes in two colours: light grey and pale pink.
For those who are unfamiliar with the concept of a ‘snuddie’, it’s essentially an oversized hoodie come dressing gown that’s made out of a fluffy, teddy bear-style blanket material.
The budget retailer’s “comfy and cosy” item is a copy of the popular ‘Oodie’ which will you back a whopping £84, which explains why people are moving so quickly to snap up the £14 version.
Those who managed to get their hands on one last year gave it rave reviews, saying it was like “walking around with your duvet on your back.”
A Facebook post showcasing the ‘snuddie’ on the ever-popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page this past week proved a hit, racking up thousands of engagements and an massive 18,000 comments – suggesting you best be quick if you want to get your hands on one this year.
And that’s not the only page that has been posting about the wearable blankets. Facebook page ‘Bag a weekly bargain‘ also shared the ‘snuddie’ saying:
“I came across these at PRIMARK and they look soooooo comfy. Pick up these Snuddies for £14.”
That post also went viral with over 8.2k post shares, 47k comments and nearly 8,000 reactions.
Clearly, they are selling fast – and we can understand why. Extreme comfort for £14 is not something to be sniffed at.
