Shoppers snap up heated USB blanket hoodie that 'costs less than £1.30 to run'

Many shoppers are looking for ways to keep costs down at home, and one effective way to do so is by investing in energy-efficient appliances such as; electric blankets, air fryers, and portable radiators to save you from racking up a hefty heating bill.

However, there’s one USB heated blanket in particular which shoppers are loving, and it costs less than £1.36 a day to run - ideal if you’re looking to keep warm this winter without turning the heating on throughout the day.

The affordable heated blanket, which is available to buy at Wowcher, features a concealed buckle design, meaning it can be wrapped around your shoulders or legs like a shawl or cardigan, and it's on sale now from just £15.99 instead of £49.99 for the small, and £29.99 for the large.

It has a 5V low voltage which is powered by a power bank with a temperature range of 40-45 degrees to keep you nice and toasty while working from home, or cosying up on the couch.

Wowcher states that the power bank is not included, however the power pouch can be charged via the included USB cable charger which can be plugged into a USB port.

As well as in the house, you can also use the blanket in your car for those frosty mornings, take it to the office to make your colleagues jealous or use it to warm yourself up in bed.

You can choose a blue, grey or brown blanket and it’s available in two sizes; small (45cm x 80cm) and large (100cm x 70cm).

The blanket not only keeps you warm, but it can help soothe aches and pains in your shoulder or back area. It's especially good to use after a workout session when your muscles are feeling a little sore.

If you’re after something that warms you up without using any energy at all, we’ve also spotted this £24.99 hoodie blanket which is almost identical to The Oodie’s Avocado wearable blanket which sells for £64.

There's plenty more items on Wowcher to keep you cosy this winter including warm bedding, wearable blankets, electric blankets, slippers and more. Shop the full winter range here.
