Oooh, how I fancy one of those Oodies. Are they worth the price, or is there a decent cheaper alternative that is just as good?

They look so cozy ! Are they worth it ? The Scrooge in me wants to buy a cheaper alternative, but the ‘oh stuff it ‘ part of me wants the genuine article.
It is to be my birthday present for January (if I can wait until then 😁)

They are definitely worth the money that’s for sure. Dd is nearly 13 and she has 4, she’s autistic and they’re a huge comfort to her. There’s always offers on too. Get one!

Cheaper alternatives are generally fine. They aren’t as good as oodies though.
Depends how warm you need it to be really.

I have one of the proper Oodies and its amazing, they're much better quality than the cheaper versions because the sherpa layer is separate, it's so warm that I only wear it when it's extremely cold! 😆

Mostly I wear the primark version with a long sleeved top underneath.

Well, it looks like it’s an Oodie then😁.

I've just checked the website and it looks like there’s a delay in dispatch due to high demand, but I’m sure by mid Jan things will be back to normal, and there is a GORGEOUS greyhound Oodie that I have spotted….❤️

I've got a silentnight one from Amazon and its just the exact same as my daughters oodie for a fraction of the price

I bought my kids oodies 4 years ago, they live in them, wash and wear well, worth the money imo
