Advantages: Under £20

Disadvantages: Useless

On a recent trip to Tesco's, I saw a Winterwarm double electric blanket on sale for £19.99. As we have only recently moved house and our central heating has not yet been fitted, I thought that at least I would be warm at night. I would have been better off with a hot water bottle and a pair of bedsocks.
To feel any heat,the blanket must be left on the highest setting all night, great for the electric bills, and even then your feet still don't get warm because the blanket is too short.
The electric cord sticks into your shoulder every time you turn over and the blanket never stays in place, no matter how tightly tied down it is.
Mine is now back in it's box on top of the wardrobe.
