It would probably be overkill for me here in Georgia, but if you live somewhere truly chilly you might want to check out Tanga today—they’ve got a down-alternative-filled sherpa comforter in Queen and King sizes for just $29 + $5 shipping, in a variety of colors. That’s down from an original price of $150, but even if that’s exaggerated, I’d say $34 for these babies is a steal.
(I kind of wish they had them in twin sizes, actually. My skinny children are always freezing, even here in the land of wimpy winters.)
My boys love curling up in blankets, walking around the house in blankets, trying to eat dinner in blankets (why don’t you just put a shirt on already?!), etc., so these will be perfect under the Christmas tree for them!
