With heating bills going up and colder weather well and truly here, we're all on the lookout for ways to save money. As we move into October, many of us would usually be turning the heating on around now but resisting as long as possible because of the frankly ridiculous cost.
And one of the things that a lot of people have been talking about recently is the Oodie, a thick, fleecy blanket with arms, a hood and a large pocket on the front that's getting loads of love across social media. It's deliberately oversized and only comes in an adult/teen version or a child version (with a dog-sized version due soon!). Narin Flanders from website Birmingham Live tested it out and described it as "one of my best buys of last winter".
She said she was sold on the Oodie ( which you can buy here ) after reading reviews about it and similar but cheaper products, saying: "In the end, what made me choose the premium product - and rest assured, The Oodie is premium and one of the pricier of these kind of blankets - was the fact many reviews mentioned how amazingly plush and fluffy the fleece of the blanket was. I also liked that its measurements came up longer than a lot of similar products, meaning it would be calf length on me rather than thigh or knee length.
