With festive season shopping and heating bills to juggle, finding ways to save money is crucial at this time of year. A wearable blanket is a clever solution to stay cosy while reducing your energy costs this winter and currently, you can grab a highly-rated one from Dunelm for less than £1 using a TopCashback offer.

Crafted from an ultra-soft teddy material, Dunelm's Teddy Oversized Blanket Hoodie is already one of the most reasonably priced blanket hoodies on the market at £16. However, you can get it for as little as 72p if you buy the hoodie through TopCashback. The website is offering new customers £15 cashback, which means an impressive 95.5% off the price for new Dunelm customers. Existing Dunelm customers can still benefit from the deal, getting it for 86p after cashback.

Available in eight fashionable colours, including Olive, Charcoal, Cream and Blush Pink, Dunelm shoppers are snapping them up for the entire family. Even at full price, someone commented that it was the 'best £16 ever spent', and that's before applying the TopCashback deal. To get the blanket for 72p, all you need to do is register on Topcashback using this link, and the £15 cashback will typically be available to withdraw within seven days.

Dunelm's Teddy Oversized Blanket Hoodie has won the hearts of shoppers, boasting an impressive 4.8-star rating from over 1,000 customers. Reviewers rave about the sumptuous softness of the material, the warmth and snugness of the hoodie, and the excellent range of colours.

If you're looking to get a head start on your Christmas shopping, this hoodie could be an excellent choice. One customer did exactly that, sharing: "Took a chance and bought six for early Christmas gifts. Every receiver came back with heartfelt thanks and the hoodies are now being worn by persons ranging in age from 22 to 93."

Another customer treated themselves to one, saying: "Bought one for myself last year. Amazing item of clothing...better than a radiator! So warm and cosy, so have bought one for a friend." A third customer stocked up for their family, explaining: "FANTASTIC. The whole family has one now as we live in a cold house. We look at each other and laugh though. It is sooo warm you have to take it off to cool down after a while but that is a good problem to have."

Reviewers praise the hoodie's super-soft and snuggly texture, as well as its generous sizing, making it suitable for both larger individuals and teenagers. The wrists are slightly elasticated, preventing the arms from hanging down, and there's even a convenient pocket/pouch.

Highlighting the benefits of staying warm and cost-efficient during the chillier months, a satisfied buyer mentioned: "An excellent buy that I bought for my husband who is always complaining of being cold. It has meant we have not had to switch on the heating yet." Another content customer shared their thoughts, saying: "I bought this for my husband who had never had one. He loves it, and uses it every evening when the temperatures drop. The whole family has them and it's even helping us to save money on heating. Highly recommend, they are super cosy and soft and the colours haven't faded with washing."

Nevertheless, some customers have noted differences between the Dunelm hoodie and comparisons made with the Oodie brand. One individual pointed out: "I was given this as a present, the quality is really good. It is thinner than another Oodie I have, but this works well for me as it's the perfect layer for when I'm slightly chilly or just want to wear it as comfort without overheating." There were also comments regarding an issue with the Dunelm version, with another noting that the hoodie 'leaves fluff all over clothes even after washing'.
