don't tell me you actually entered your real phone #?

Honestly, I can't remember if I entered my real one or a fake one. For things that I order online I will use my email address, mailing address, and real phone number, but when it's something like this I'll usually just use a spam email account and a fake number. However, because I put in my real address, as a force of habit I might have inadvertently put in my real phone number.

^ I put in your phone number on my snuggie request, so the telemarketers have your number either way. ;)

Thanks for telling me. At least I'll know it wasn't my fault...

In all seriousness though, I checked my spam account email and haven't received any spam since I submitted the information, so I dunno what that means...

Probably not I completed the information and they said they would send an email to confirm but I still have not gotten an email oh well looked pretty shady from the beginning.

from another site


No way this comes. Their WhoIS info is hidden, which is the #1 sign of a spam site when it comes to freebies.

The signup page is an iframe which is pulling from a second domain, SuzzlyPromo.com. Not only is their Whois info private as well, but it was registered on Oct. 19, 2009. If hidden Whois info is the #1 sign of freebie spam, a site registered a week ago is #2. And then check out the footer links on the confirmation page. They all go to a third domain, Spooluff.com. That domain doesn't even have a main site and two of the links are dead. The owner of Spooluff isn't a company, but some some random guy whose e-mail is at gaweb.com, which is a spamish directory.

Furthermore, if you call the number from their site / confirmation e-mail, you'll get a recorded message and then can hit # for more options. This is followed by "to enter your K7 security code press 4" which means they're using K7.net, a free voicemail and fax system. I can't think of any legit business that uses a free telephone service for business calls.

All of that was a long way of saying I doubt this is legit and not to hold your breath or count on using it as a Christmas gift. But heck, at the very least, if you sign up for this, use a throw-away e-mail and Google Voice account.

By the power vested in me by the College of Hard Knocks, I now pronounce this entire thread a Snuggie Snafu, and declare that we have been sneeringly snookered.

Of all the freebies that never materialized this one disappoints me the most. I really wanted one of these mofos,lol.

It's $19.95 plus $7.95 S&H, thank you.

(I just... somehow know this.)

Blockbuster sells them for $15

Re: Free snuggie blanket
 
i love how everytime i go into blockbuster they are selling something new. Books, snuggies, the ski-masks of jigsaw & the joker, board games, toys. And what amuses me more is that those things are "decently" priced compared to the movies they actually sell. haha
