Amazon shoppers rush to buy £21 hooded blanket that's 'just like £89' Oodie

As Black Friday approaches, Amazon has reduced one of this year's most sought-after products. In light of energy bill advice from fans of Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis, shoppers have looked to hooded blankets as means of keeping warm at home without having to put the heating on.

The most popular hooded blanket brand is undoubtedly Oodie. Oodies tend to cost around £89 each, however the brand currently has a huge sale on its website.

Some of its most expensive items are reduced by a whopping £252, while others are reduced by as much as £80. You can shop the huge Oodie Black Friday sale here.

But for those looking for an even cheaper dupe of the Oodie, Amazon is proving a popular and budget-friendly option. Amazon has reduced its hugely popular Winthome Wearable Blanket with Sleeves down from £33 to £21, making it more affordable than ever.

The £21 Amazon hooded blanket has thousands of five-star reviews. Many have compared it to the Oodie.

Made from soft flannel, the wearable blanket is described as feeling like a 'warm hug' in the product description. It includes loop fasteners at the back and adjustable cuffs to ensure maximum comfort.

The Oodie dupe comes in a variety of different colours including grey, blue, printed blue, plaid, purple and more. Shoppers have rated the wearable blanket a 4.5 out of 5 on average, and left plenty of glowing reviews on the Amazon website.

One review read: "Soft, snuggly , lightweight but warm. Bought for when sitting reading or watching tv to enable me to turn down the heating a few degrees. Fantastic buy."

A second shopper said: "My good lady loves the blanket and will keep her warm throughout the winter, without turning up the heating. Saving money and brownie points for me!"

A third review read: "The blanket is nice and soft and is especially useful because of the arms. I look forward to using on the cold weather."

A fourth added: "I got this as a birthday present and I love it! Our house is draughty and we always have sofa blankets but oooooo I'm not sharing this one. It so big you can completely wrap yourself in it and because your arms are free you are not forever rearranging it when you reach for coffee! It is so soft and I find myself stoking like like I have a cat asleep on my lap, (which never happens in our house as we have a very standoffish cat!) It is super warm and when I come home from work, chilled to the bone, it is pajamas on and snuggle in my blanket."
