"Every time the ad comes on, I elbow my husband and say, 'You can use your arms!' " Jennifer Vaughan Martin told the Chicago Sun-Times. "The people look so happy, and their lives seem so much more complete with the Snuggie."
You can feel complete too for just $14.95. Read more about the crazy popularity of what we think pretty much looks like a poncho in the Sun-Times.
