To buy an Oodie?

DH says they’re basically a form of contraception. I want to avoid using the heating at much as possible your feet will be freezing in the winter so I’m thinking of getting an Oodie and keeping a couple of blankets near the sofa in a box for on an evening?

Are Oodies really that vile?

Am I being unreasonable?

They aren't oodies. They are cheap versions.

I have just bought a cheaper version and although it is lovely and snuggly and I am sure it will keep me warm (I don't really feel the cold that much) the hood is going to annoy me like crazy.

Why have they even got hoods? No reason to need a hood indoors

Actual oodies are definitely not thin. I love them but people who dislike them often feel smothered by the thickness and weight.
