B&M shoppers praise winter must-have that is 'cheaper than an Oodie'

B&M shoppers who are looking to keep warm without racking up the heating bills have been raving over a fully lined snuggle hoodie that they are flocking to stores for.

As the weather continues to get that bit chillier while the cost of living still remains high, many of us have been looking for ways to keep warm without racking up the energy bills. One item that many households have been turning to has been the Oodie, which is essentially an oversized wearable blanket that has gained popularity with those who are looking to heat themselves up without fully heating the home.

Originally made popular in 2020, the fleece-lined hoodie has made a comeback this year with families who are trying to not spend so much on fuel bills. However, with prices ranging up to £67 for one, it is understandable why shoppers have been looking for cheaper alternatives.

Which is why many of them have been flocking to budget chain B&M for the Fully Lined Snuggle Hoodie, which is virtually almost identical to the iconic Australian-owned item - just without the price-tag.

Featuring a Sherpa fleece lining and a kangaroo style pocket, the soft and cosy hoodie is perfect for keeping you warm in those chillier evenings in the home.

B&M says the hoodie is perfect for saving energy as you can snuggle up in one on the days that you want to keep the thermostat and energy bills down. Available in kids sizes for £10 and adults sizes for £20, the retailer recently shared their Snuggle Hoodies online to the delight of their many fans: "It's socially acceptable to wear one of these snuggle hoodies outdoors - and if anyone suggests otherwise, please show them this post.

"Which one would you be picking up?! They're all fully lined and SO cozy!"

Shoppers flocked to the comments to boast about how they managed to get their hands on, or express their frustration at being unable to find them.

"I've got my daughter the blue unicorn one and I may have also treated myself to the navy star and moon one", said one shopper.

"They are brilliant x", commented a second.

"Literally so much cheaper than an Oodie!", said a third tagging their friend.

"Want and need", commented a fourth.

Others commented to express their disappointment at being unable to find the Snuggle Lined Hoodies in their own local store, as demand for them has soared.

"Looked for these on Thursday but couldn't find any in my local store", commented one.

"Sold out in my local store!", agreed a second.

B&M's Smuggle Lined Hoodies are available in-stores now. Check with your local store for stock availability.
