To ask if anyone got this hooded blanket and doesn’t want it?

I dropped very heavy hints about this Next hooded blanket but it didn’t materialise in my Christmas stocking.

I’d absolutely love it and spent a long time imagining myself lounging about the house in it! 😂

I thought I’d try asking here in case anyone got it for Christmas and didn’t want it. Sold out now - happy to pay!

That is nice! How much was it?

It was about £35. I wish it was still available! I keep checking the Next website in case they get returns.

You.... WANT that? 😕

To be fair, I did receive a blanket hoodie and am wearing it now. Very cosy it is too. But it's a tasteful light grey (my taste, that is!) and wouldn't have cost anywhere near £35. Worth a rummage further afield than Next? There must be several potential suppliers as they seem to be quite in vogue, for sound practical reasons.

Mxflamingnoravera · 31/12/2022 12:55

Try ebay, I find lots of things that are sold out can be found on there.

Edinburgh Woolen Mill had a similar one. Cowl neck rather than a hood. Red with placement floral print. Might be worth a look.

Rude much?

Sorry OP, I didn't get that! I hope someone did and is happy to sell it on for you though 🙂🤞🏻

Chocandcheese5 · 31/12/2022 13:09

Maybe try vinted OP, worth a look anyway just in case.

LaurieFairyCake · 31/12/2022 13:12

One in a different print brand new for £30 buy it now on EBay Smile

On a plus side it will be spring soon OP so you wouldn't get masses of use out of it at this point and the print is pretty seasonal.

I suppose all you can do is keep checking on vinted or ebay or call NEXT customer service and see if they can tell you where there is one (unlikely given its a sale item. I would also expect any returns of sale items to stay in store or be redirected to their outlets rather than appear back online for sale.

Talia99 · 31/12/2022 13:14

Maybe check your local store? Sometimes they still have things that are sold out online.

It’s almost as though different people like…different things. Crazy, isn’t it?

😂 I just saw that one! You’re so kind to search for me. I’ve saved that search and set up an alert so thanks to everyone who suggested eBay. 🤞🏻

Ooh Vinted is a good idea. I’ve just had a look and it’s not there but I’ll keep looking.

@dontgobaconmyheart @Talia99 Yes, I should check my local shop. And hadn’t clocked that about returns not going online.

People have VERY different tastes 😹

Have you tried oodie? I've got one and it's my best purchase ever

Show quote history

This. I wouldn’t wear 90% (95%?) of the designs on the oodie website on a bet. However, I love the two designs I’ve actually bought.

I suspect lots of people would hate my oodies and like the ones I don’t.

Thelnebriati · 31/12/2022 13:38

Its a shame Ebay don't have a Wanted section.

I'll be wearing mine for the next two months at least and will wear it when we go camping.

Mine is from B&M so much cheaper but still warm.

QueefQueen80s · 31/12/2022 13:51

I love a good treasure hunt so I've reverse image searched, looked on marketplace.. People must love theirs so much that they don't want to get rid! In response to the rude poster earlier 🙄
Hopefully one will appear in the coming weeks OP!

Badgirlriri · 31/12/2022 13:54

I think it’s beautiful and wish I’d spotted it to buy too!

boboshmobo · 31/12/2022 13:56

I work there and can keep an eye out for you

We get thousands of returns every day so check the website every morning!

CleoandRalf · 31/12/2022 13:56

I’ll ask my nan, as it looks like she would be using it as curtains

Do you know the code @Rainallnight ?
