OK, so I was in my favorite store (CVS) tonite — as I am most nights — and as I was looking for some mailing labels, I came across Snuggies for sale on the value aisle…
I'm not a tattle-tale, but...
Now, I was under the impression that Snuggies weren’t available in retail stores — that they could only be ordered through their official website. But apparently I was wrong. That or CVS is bootlegging Snuggies, in which case I apologize profusely for this post — I’m not trying to get you caught out there C-to-the-V…
All my friends know how much I love CVS. I’m always letting them know about the deals I find — trying to convert the non-believers. Please see the text convo between me and my girl Sandi:

I’ll never doubt you again.
Anyway, as you know I already have a custom NFL fleece Snuggie, made for me by my girl DWJ…
My Eagles Snuggie!
But I couldn’t pass up the chance to pick up the authentic Snuggie. Because I really want to attend the Snuggie Pub Crawl in DC and I’m not sure if you can do it without an official Snuggie… I’m getting a little discouraged though because I’ve still yet to be notified when the DC Snuggie Pub Crawl is taking place. I joined the mailing list, but we’re almost out of Snuggie weather so I’m wondering if they’re gonna nix some of the cities.
And yes, I’m so serious. First, they’re donating proceeds from the event to charity (or at least they better be!!!) And second… do you know how HILARIOUS that would be?!? I would do a two-camera shoot and recruit a crew of correspondents and hit the streets. Talk about a video blog that writes itself. Drunken Snuggie Monks roaming the Cap City. Man oh man… I really hope I get the chance.
I couldn't resist... $14.99 AND the book light. CAMMAN!
Anyway, that’s me in my new Snuggie. Don’t be a hater. You know who you are ;) Holler.
It came with a book light too?!?!? Man the CVS deal may be better than ordering online or via the phone…I need to do the math and see.

I use to work at CVS. We had a huge area just for As-Seen-On-TV stuff. All those infomercials say that they aren’t available in stores. I promise you that when it says that it doesn’t matter! It will probably be sold at CVS!!! LOL!
