Shoppers race to buy Oodie cooling blanket that is 'ice cold to touch' amid £30 price slash
The Oodie brand is mainly recognised for its fluffy, oversized wearable blanket hoodies which are perfect for keeping people warm during the long winter months. However, many people may not be aware that the brand also stocks items that are helpful for keeping people cool during the summer.
Oodie also has a cooling range, which includes PJ tops, shorts, bottoms and oversized tees that are crafted to help keep wearers from overheating during the night. On top of this, the brand also stocks cooling blankets in a variety of designs.
Normally retailing for £99 for a single, shoppers can now snap up this popular summer product for £69 as part of Oodie's massive sale. For those looking for something a bit bigger, the retailer has also slashed the price of the queen sized edition down to £89 from £129 - saving shoppers £40.
Now while it may seem like an odd idea to throw on a blanket when you are too warm, Oodie's cooling blanket is designed to wick away heat and moisture to allow its users "refreshing, year-round comfort". Its lightweight design won't weigh you down and it is said to be cool to the touch and soft on your skin.
The blanket was created with cooling properties that can absorb any excess body heat and keep users "cooler for longer". With an Qmax score of 0.32, the blanket will feel two to five degrees cooler than the user's body temperature.
While the cover is made with 90 per cent nylon and 10 per cent elastane for durability, breathability and a cool touch, the filling is made with 100 per cent polyester to provide lightweight insulation and added softness. Shoppers have the choice of seven different designs, including lilac pastel waves, cheetah print, blue and grey.

Product Description
Alternatively, Amazon is selling the widely popular Elegear Cooling Blanket for £33.99 in a limited time deal. Normally retailing for £39.99, this blanket has over 26,400 ratings which has resulted in 4.4 stars. Reducing the skin's temperature by two to five degrees, this blanket is great for those who are hot sleepers and have night sweats.
Silentnight has also reduced the price of their Restore Cooling Throw down from £45 to £35. Said to the perfect relaxation companion, this throw provides instant cooling comfort through a breathable jersey cotton. With dimensions of 152cm by 178cm, this blanket is perfect for both the sofa or the bed.
Back to the Oodie Cooling Blanket, the range currently doesn't have any reviews on the website but they have been given high star ratings from shoppers, with only one design dropping to four stars. However, some shoppers have left reviews about the Oodie's cooling range on TrustPilot.
One five-star reviewer said: "Got a robe and a cooling blanket. While I didn't really think the robe would be just like the regular Oodie, I still like it. The cooling blanket? TRULY a cooling blanket. Ice cold to the touch and it's great at night. If you guys did regular bed sheets I'd get those too!"
With another customer adding:"I love everything Oodie, they're warm and snuggly or they're cooling, just bought the cooling top and bottoms and, amazingly, they do keep you cool.
However, they did go on to grumble: "My one complaint is the amount of unnecessary packaging. I bought ONE top and ONE pair of bottoms but there were FIVE plastic bags in total! Not that good for the environment."
A three-star reviewer also wasn't completely impressed, commenting: "Thought this would be a great idea for my partner who is a hot sleeper and myself who likes to sleep with a blanket on. I did read reviews prior to buying.
"While being very soft and my partner likes it, it does feel cooler when first going to sleep, just doesn't stay that way for long. I was not expecting miracles but gave it a go to try and get a comfortable sleep for both of us. I would still buy from Oodie again as i do like their products."
Despite this, another shopper praised: "I discovered the cooling blanket quite recently (as well as the joys of sleep tees for myself and family). The cooling blanket I bought this. Time is the leopard print. And I absolutely love it, I LOVE it!!!!
"The touch of it is almost like satin!! Treat yourself (or a loved one) now!! Don't wait too long, they sell out fast! p.s I have two of the plush blankets too - fabulous."
With a fifth shopper adding: "I'm very happy with my nightie that I bought last year, and the cooling blanket I have just bought. The delivery was great and the quality is lovely. I keep an eye to see if there are any new patterns I like but I will be waiting for the sale to buy again."

My spending was out of control until I made easy change everyone can do – it helped me pay off £9k debt on £9k salary
DEBT CHANGE My spending was out of control until I made easy change everyone can do – it helped me pay off £9k debt on £9k salary Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) OPENING her credit card statements Jo Beevers feels sick. She knew she had a problem with impulsive spending but she had never faced up to it, until now. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Jo Beevers, 46, got her spending under control with an easy trick anyone can do The 46-year-old, who lives near Chester, had always been in debt and was stuck in a constant cycle of doing 0% balance transfers. But going from a full-time job as an medical conditions and injury rehabilitation manager in a gym earning £30,000 to a working as a registrar 16 hours a week earning £9,000, Jo had no option but to stop hiding from it all and gain control. Jo said: 'I had £9,099.82 of credit card and overdraft debt and when I looked at where that money had been going, I felt ashamed. 'My spending was reckless because the money didn't feel real and I treated shopping like a hobby even though I was skint.' In 2018 Jo's "you only live once" outlook on money saw her buy a Volkswagen Up! for £9,000 while her husband, who works in IT, was away. And after a boozy lunch popped into Boots and spent £300 on perfumes she didn't need. Amazon parcels turned up every day and she even had a monthly delivery of two bottles of champagne from its Subscribe and Save service. Jo said: "It was ridiculous. If I had to hand over £80 in cash for two bottles of champagne every month I wouldn't have done it. 'But because it all went on the credit card, I didn't think about it. I knew I was bad but I could always justify my spending." Done with feeling guilty, stressed and worried about her mounting debt Jo stuffed her credit cards in a drawer and was ruthless in cancelling everything that was non-essential. I racked up £15k debt - here's how I paid it off as a single mum Then, she made one major change, at the beginning of every month she physically took out the remaining money after bills and groceries. Jo created a tracker and, in the beginning, divided the cash into different envelopes but it wasn't as easy as she thought and became overwhelmed. Jo said: 'I made loads of mistakes in the first three months by thinking the money could go further than it did. 'I created too many envelopes and the money couldn't stretch as far as I wanted it to.' Giving up temporarily, Jo worked through the overwhelm of emotions and prioritised where her money should be going and got herself back on track. She said: "Holding the money changed how I thought about it, it made it feel real. 'I had sections for debt, achievable savings goals and for non-essential spending. "Once I'd figured it out it was easy. It's so visual, it works for my mind.' Determined to pay off her debt and to keep on track, Jo created fun trackers to gamify her savings and to keep her motivated. She shared her journey on social media as @Cashbudgetbee and her trackers caught the eye of her followers. Stumbling on another way of topping up her part-time income, Jo began selling them on Etsy which has made £2,000 in the last 12 months. Jo said: 'I never thought it possible to find a way of making some extra money from my own debt clearing journey. 'But it made me feel normal to know that there were other people out there just like me.' Staying motivated was hard that's why she made the videos to share with her followers. When Jo hit a milestone, she popped into M&S and bought some champagne to treat herself, but a £22 one instead of a £40 bottle. But it can be a slippery slope, and the entrepreneurial mum, had to reign herself in. She said: 'It starts with one thing and then you're going back into old habits. And you go, 'Oh no I'm not debt free yet.'' Eighteen months on and Jo made her final payment on her credit card and if that wasn't enough, she also went into Christmas 2024 with money saved. She said: 'Being debt free is amazing, I'm the happiest I've ever been. Having money to spend at Christmas, rather than relying on credit cards was a great feeling.' But while she's riding high on clearing her debts, Jo doesn't feel like she can relax her new routine. She said: 'It really does worry me that I'll slip back as I've got 30 years-worth of spending habits to break. 'I've noticed some of my old shopping habits are sneaking back in. On Valentine's Day I didn't put anything in the budget as we hadn't planned anything. 'Then the day before I was online and putting all sorts in my basket, thankfully I was able to recognise what I was doing and stopped. All I can do is to keep trying.' Jo is giving herself new challenges to keep the momentum going and recently created an e-book sharing her own journey which she's already made £180 from.

'Comfortable' 4 seater garden set drops from £139 to £65 but sale ends soon
'Beautiful. Sturdy and comfortable than suitable for a smaller space.' Dunelm's huge clearance sale will soon be coming to an end, which has seen thousands of must-have products get their price tags slashed up to 50 per cent. Those who have had their eye on something will need to be fast as the event is set to finish at midnight on August 18. For shoppers looking to upgrade their garden furniture to provide comfortable seating for friends and family, Dunelm has a variety of popular sets available both in and out of the sale. However, for those wanting to save a bit of money, we have found the perfect set. The Dunelm 4 Seater Garden Dining Set usually retails for £139, but shoppers can now snatch it up for £69.50. This set comes with everything a household could need, including four chairs, a table and a parasol to stick in the middle so families can enjoy a meal without the sun's glare. Crafted to ensure full flexibility for your outdoor space, this garden dining set consists of metal furniture that will withstand various weather conditions, including the wind and rain. However, for times of the year when it is too cold and gloomy to be outside, Dunelm recommends using a cover to further protect the furniture so it can be used for many years to come. Along with its sturdy design, many shoppers have praised the chairs for being comfortable to sit in, which is a must for making the most of the warm, summer weather. Perfect for a warm coffee in the morning with a good book or dinner and drinks with loved ones, this dining set provides shoppers with more than enough space to entertain and ensure a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Alternatively, for those wanting to add a pop of colour to their homes, Argos has dropped the price of Habitat Cali 4 Seater Metal Patio Set in yellow. Normally retailing for £150, shoppers can now buy it for £100.50 in the clearance sale. This set includes a table, two single seats and a double sofa. For those looking for something smaller, Amazon has reduced the price of the URBNLIVING 3pc Outdoor Garden Furniture Set. Now £69.99 (RRP £89.99), this rattan set consists of two chairs with cushions for added comfort as well as a table. Back to Dunelm's four seater garden set, many shoppers have praised it for how comfortable and stylish its design is. However, there were mixed opinions on how easy the set is to assemble. One satisfied shopper said: "An excellent table chairs and parasol set. Found it very easy to erect and getting it at a discount price bonus. Staff where very helpful and Dunelm delivery were great can't say enough about the whole experience brilliant. Would give it more than five stars." While another five-star reviewer added: "Garden set absolutely beautiful looks lovely in the garden. It was easy to assemble." However, one shopper grumbled: "Lovely colour (grey). Putting the chairs together WILL test your patience and I have plenty patience for any flat pack!! OK for the sale price." While another customer commented: "Lovely patio set for the money. Hard to attach stretcher on the back of the chair without strong help is the only fault." As a few people noted about struggling to assemble the chairs, Dunelm has since added an instruction video to its website to help make the process easier. This can be found with the product images. On the flip side, a top reviewer praised: "Beautiful. Sturdy and comfortable than suitable for a smaller space." While a sixth customer said: "Very stylish, light and practical. Seats are comfortable for prolonged seating time. Easy wipe/dry. Excellent value for money." There isn't much time left to get the Dunelm 4 Seater Garden Dining Set for half price.

'Attractive' £100 fire pit that's ideal for long summer nights drops to £44
For those wanting to make the most of the long summer nights, a fire pit is the perfect option for when the temperatures drop. With Scotland enjoying another spell of warm weather this week, many of us are wanting to make the most of the longer nights before temperatures start to drip as we head into the autumn months. For those wanting to enjoy their outdoor space with friends and family well into the night, households may want to consider buying a fire pit. Providing extra warmth, a relaxing atmosphere and a chance to roast marshmallows, a fire pit could be a fun addition to your garden. And shoppers don't need to break the bank on their purchase as Debenhams has slashed 56 per cent off a popular fire pit in their end-of-summer sale. Normally retailing for £99.99, the Neo Black Large Circular Outdoor Garden Heater is just £44.25. Featuring a compact and sleek design, this stylish pot-shaped fire pit will elevate every garden set up. Made with durable high-quality materials that are weather resistant, this heater is sure to have cozy gatherings going on well into night. Along with a protective mesh lid to keep you and your loved ones safe, the pit also comes with a heat-resistant fire poker to help with log lifting, fire maintenance and extra protection while lifting the hot mesh lid. For extra stability for use in a garden, patio or while camping, the base comes with three sturdy legs. Another option on the market is the Argos Home Foldable Firepit. Dropped down from £50 to £40, this portable fire pit comes with its own carry bag for easy transportation. Suitable for charcoal or wood, this heater also comes with a grill so it can be used as a BBQ. Alternatively, for those not wanting to deal with building a fire, Amazon is selling the DONYER POWER Electric Quartz Patio Heater for £59.84 (RRP £62.99). This free standing heater can warm up in a matter of seconds and comes with three heating modes. Back to the Neo Fire Pit, Debenhams shoppers have awarded it a 4.7 star rating, with many reviewers impressed by the bargain price and quality of the fire pit. One delighted shopper said: "Brilliant fire pit bowl. Great size! Good quality! Great price! Bought in the sale! Does the job! Highly recommend!" While another five-star reviewer simply wrote: "A good size, easily assembled, and great for the price." However, not everyone was fully impressed with the garden must-have, as one person wrote: "Looks good, worth the money, only downside is the fork is short, when full fire and trying to lift on/off the cover."
