Was it lead vinyl or rubber vinyl ? I worked for an outfit that made them, including custom work. The superman one was cool.

Supposed to be similar to deep pressure therapy, help with anxiety, restlessness, and other sleep issues. Can't speak to most of that since I smoke cigars for anxiety and slept like the dead already. Seems t have helped the wife with sleeping through the night. Definitely comfy though. Feels like a big hug

I've seen these on the shelves during Christmas time and wondered what they were all about. Whistle seems to have found a rather practical use for them.

Wally world has some on their clearance shelves. Might be a worthy $5 investment, ya never know when someone will need a... ummm... "big hug" to help them "sleep."

I see some which are allegedly warming and cooling. Some sort of bamboo charcoal on one side, then flip it if you want warmth. Sounds odd.

As a kid I recall cracking a window in the winter just a tiny bit... and then piling on heavy blankets and sleeping like the dead.

I routinely run my house fan all night with a few windows open this time of year. Can be pretty cold in the mornings. I've woken up to 63 degrees in the house. I sleep much better when it's colder.

What's your underlying problem?

Why must you feel safe?

Just take a valium and save your money...

Hop on the weighted blanket bandwagon BOYEEEEE...

So many problems, where to start?

Can fall but not stay asleep.
Once awake, getting back to slumber is difficult. Corporate ptsd makes the mind run.
Wake up hot from ankles up. Feet cold 300 days a year.

The propaganda on these seems to solve every problem I have and cool the planet by three degrees.

Still, $50-$100 for a blanket? I should sleep in a power recliner.

IT JUST MADE ME LAUGH HYSTERICALLY...

F***em...

Bring it on coward SSG GHOST DOUCHEBAGS ,
