Shoppers are turning to weighted blankets to help combat the January blues, with several big name versions of the cosy products reduced in post-Christmas sales.
With people wanting to stay warm and minimise the need for their heating as the cost of living crisis continues, shoppers have already increasingly turned to big throws, heated blankets and Oodie-style hooded blankets to help keep warm on a budget.
But weighted blankets, which can be as heavy as 7kg, not only help keep people warm as they snooze but have been described as 'gamechangers' and a 'firm hug' for people looking to reduce anxiety and sleep better.
