Karen,

What the hell are you talking about??? There's no mention of "our government" paying for the Snuggie. Are you one of those crazy tea-baggers who wants the government to keep their hands off her medicare?

There's no way that you're the president of a funding company. Then again... if people like you are making America's financial decisions, it explains the mess we're in.

Don't mess with the Snuggie!

Snuggies are great. I can leave my thermostat at 68 and stay warm with the Snuggie. I will probably buy the electric version too.

I didn't see anything in the article about our government funding this. I don't see how plugging this in is different from electric throws, blankets, or mattress pads we currently plug into our walls. They all pose some degree of fire hazard, not high I wouldn't think. Haven't seen any reports of fires in OKC due to electric heating products of this nature. More like kids playing with matches, candles left unattended. I love my snuggie and can't wait to see the electric version.

Karen, How do you figure that our government has ANYTHING to do with the SNUGGIE??? Not a fact, you are incorrect.

I do agree with the dangers of electric blankets overall but if it is properly tested and the people that choose to purchase it use serious caution, I don't think it's any more dangerous than putting lights on dried out christmas trees.

The Snuggie may not be the most attractive thing but it certainly comes in handy at your kids games when it's freezing cold and you have to hand out drinks & snacks...

Karen
Please read all the the article before you post a commit. You say you are a president of a company but can't get the facts right. I guess that explains why so many companys are in trouble. There is no mention of the goverment in this article.

Why does it have to be a Tea Bagger, it's more likely one of those environmental whakos that are pushing cap & trade and the return to flints and kindleing for warmth. No, there was no mention of the government funding this enterprise but if it starts to fail this government might give them "bail out" funds.

Karen...

again no mention of the government funding this stupid snuggie was mentioned...and i'm from Buffalo, New York. You could go up to practically anyones home and ask if they had a electric blanket. The majority of them do. I know my grandparents do. Things like that should be UL tested (UL is a private company who tests electrical devices, not funded by the gov't whatsoever.) Electric blankets have a safety shut off feature that automatically cuts the electric off after a couple hours, and it won't turn back on unless you unplug it then plug it back in....

karen,
wow are you a dummy!!!! and yes i am a tea bagger and very proud of it.
I think you have lost your mind no mention of gov. ran snuggie what now we have a snuggie zar (lol) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

snuggies are great provided they are made of quality fleece. did you know there is a company that makes snuggie type wearable blankets for babies up to 1 years? i believe the product is called the mommy's hug wearable blanket.

Who is the heck mentioned anything about the goverment? anyway I like this idea for when you are sitting on the couch watching tv. will be useless for actually doing anything around the house like walking to the kitchen LOL but good idea for people who sit with their loved ones on the couch or even sleeping... thats when I am the coldest is at night or early mornings. but once i get moving and off to work i am fine. I like this i may even get one next winter not going to buy this in the spring tho. no point.

Why is our government paying for the Snuggie, Karen? There was NO mention of our government in this article? Where'd you get that from?
I can agree that making this snuggie into an electric blanket of sorts is a dangerous idea. The idea that we live in a capitalist society where people can buy as little or as much as they want. I'm sure as the "president" of a "funding company" you've seen many not-so-great ideas come through the doors. But I'm sure there are plenty of ideas you thought were lame that have since made people millionaires.
Aren't you glad you live in a country where you can decide what you like and don't like. What you want to buy and don't buy?
Stop bashing our government at every opportunity. The government has nothing to do with this, EXCEPT, they don't deny anyone the freedom to invent any type of thing they want and market it and become millionaires off of it, regardless of how lame of an idea it is! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Karen....what makes you think the government is supporting the Snuggie?? Have you been drinking?

Why not wear it? Anything goes these days. I had rather see someone wearing one of these than these guys who wear their pants down to their buttholes.

I got a snuggie for Christmas from a distant relative. It's going to be my white elephant gift for next year. What a load of crap, a snuggie is! Why do I need to wear my blanket, let alone plug it in? I've read other comments and have to agree: It's just an oversized bathroom robe.

Enough already!

Karen is only speaking like this because she is jealous that she wasn't stupid enough to think of a product that is hard to keep on the shelves.

Everybody worship thy snuggie :)

I bought snuggies for my three grown daughters and my wife and they love them. I have even tried one on myself. It is better then a blanket or a robe for laying around and watching TV. You wouldn't catch me wearing one in public.

Now all they have to do is invent a nose warmer and we'll be all set for those winter cold, drafty nights. LOLOL
