Snuggies are EVIL! (I was scammed)

Posted by UberCream - June 20th, 2009


People of Newgrounds! Heed my message as a word of warning and DO NOT buy a Snuggie! Take my lesson unto thine brains and learn from my mistakes, so as to prevent the past from repeating itsself once again!

Yep.

Anyway, about three months ago, I decided I wanted to order a Snuggie for myself from that evil website. The choices of color were blue, and some shade of red that I don't remember the name of... After ordering a blue one, the site asked my "Would you like to suck our big, marketable cocks one more time by ordering," wait for it, "ANOTHER SNUGGIE!"

Of course, I am one who is easilly swayed by messages written in large fonts, so I thought, "Duhr, okay!" and decided to purchase one more, for a friend of mine for his birthday. This time it was red.

Now you may be thinking, "But 'Handsome Sounding Voice in my Head,' you aren't making Snuggies sound so evil." Shut the fuck up, I'm not finished with my story. Do I interupt you with every thought that pops into my many brains? No, okay, so sit back down and quietly wait for me to finish.

So, here is where my story takes a step towards frustrating... Two weeks later, the day finally comes when I get my four Snuggies in the mail. Yes, four. If you were paying attention you would remember that I specifically asked for TWO snuggies. Apparently, when you order two from the website, they neglect to tell you that they don't mean two Snuggies, as they mean two SETS of two Snuggies. Yes, four Snuggies for the price of four, without even telling me about two of them. Having to pay more than fourty dollars (Which is like, twenty british pounds or something?) for a few large pieces of felt seems a bit much.

At first I think, "Well, this isn't so bad." I have family members and friends I can give these to, as I'm not a lonely asshole," so I did. You should see the looks on people's faces when they open the beautifully wrapped box they receive on their birthdays, only to find out that its contents are something that they will never use, EVER!

You may think my clever tale is over, but alas kind sir, it is not. Just a day or two ago, a whole three months after ordering my first four Snuggies, the shameless bastards had the BALLS to send me two more in the mail; without even telling me! Wasn't that nice of them, sending me a free gift for being a good enough customer? I mean, I ordered four useless blobs of fabric from them for a decent bit of money, and I would expect to be compensated with a free gift, right? WRONG! A large tag on the box informed me that not only were the new Snuggies not free, but they were more expensive than the first sets of two I was fooled into buying. Yes, they costed about five dollars more than before! They charged it directly to my account, and they were so nice about it, that they didn't even bother me with an email or phone call!

Well, kind traveller, I'm afraid my story ends here. I was tricked into buying five more of something than I actually wanted. It turns out, I'm suppost to wear it backwards, which makes my back cold, so that's kind of annoying. And guess what! To add insult to injury, the last two Snuggies I received didn't even come with a free book-light, a product which probably costed more to manufacture than the Snuggie itsself!

So what have we all learned from this story? If something looks too stupid to be true, don't fucking buy it.

that was really funny, but at the same time i feel bad for you. that's like an uber scam. that really sucks.

Did you seriously want a Snuggie?
Seriously?

Well, I sort of did, because, if they had the nerve to actually sell something that stupid, it must be really great, or else nobody would buy it.

Omg what a piece of sh*t stuff. Never trust the guys who sell useless things. N-E-V-E-R.

you could've just saved yourself the money and bought a cheap bathrobe and worn it backwords

Can't I just wear it forwards?

I just now found out what a Snuggie is. I laugh at your misfortune.

At first, I thought; "What is that, a fucking bear, or something?" But no! SOMETHING FAR COOLER. A blanket with SLEEVES. How far technology has come. My word.

Now you don't have to worry about sliding blankets, and your hands will be completely free. I can fap and drink Pepsi at the same time! I'm ordering 5, in case I lose 4.

Not gonna lie but when i saw that commercial i was laughing my bag off at how ridiculously stupid the product they were trying to sell. a blanket with sleeves? its like a house coat thats too damn long to walk in and without a belt or soemthing to keep it tried completely around u.

The only good TV product is the Mother F**kin shamWoW.

Vince FTW!

Snuggies are part of a cult. Put one on and you have entered the cult of Consumerism. They take over your mind and make you buy more. I can just image a bunch of people with snuggies on chanting in random jibberish while worshiping a dollar.
PS: I have a snuggie too, and they are worthless, I'm sorry you got scammed, but now you can look at my art :)

When did you start making front page posts you handsome-sounding bastard?

Oh and anyways, thanks for the info, I wasn't really planning on getting a snuggie but just in case I get the urge to, I'll control myself.

You got 6 snuggies when all you wanted was two. Fuck those people and their thin-ass blanket selling scams.

No problem! Information, no matter how useless, will always be an expensive commodity, or atleast until the Cubans take us over...

In the states, they tend to advertise the heck out of these things in the winter. I always though those commercials were evil.

Seriously, those people in the commercials look TOO happy.
