Throws at Sam's Club

Mominohio — Sun, 17 Jan 2016 21:29:34 GMT

I have a new(er) obsession with throws. It has been building for about two years. I often pick up great throws on clearance or Lunchtime specials on Q.

I was in Sam's on Friday and noticed they had on clearance very large throws (60x70 I believe) in that velvety Berkshire like fabric. They have two layers, one printed, the other solid, with a sculpting on the solid side. For cheap throws, I thought they were great for the money. They were marked down to $9 each.

I hadn't really paid attention to them during the season, but the price caught my eye. I could only find one that suited my decor/style, black (maybe dark grey?) with a cream elegant scroll pattern, solid black on the reverse, so I grabbed it quickly as it was the last one.

The other colors/patterns were too bold and bright for me,but I picked up two more with the thoughts that they'd make good car blankets, good gifts (one color scheme would suit my best friend), or whatever came along, just couldn't pass them up for the price.

Well, my oldest kitty has discovered mine, so I may have to turn at least one of them over to the cats!

Just thought if anyone else might be looking, and their club hasn't sold out yet, they might want to check it out. I'm really pleased with the quality, size style and definitely the price.

I also have a weakness for throws. It seems I'll always find one better and softer than what I have at home.

Thanks for the recommendation at Sam's. I certainly don't need anymore, but for that price.

That would be nice for us that have animals,and also nice to buy and give to shelters.

I have a weakness for throws as well, especially quilted ones (I don't find them much anymore).... BUT I agree that the Sam's Club throws are wonderful. I also bought one that plugged in but at 50 x70 it ended up being way to much for me and my chair.... wish they made one much smaller. I use them a lot because my chair is right by the outside wall and windows and when it gets -15 out there it's always colder where my chair is....

Right now I use a larger heating pad AND my throw.... which is a D.Basso throw... that is if I can roll the dog off it....

I've also purchased some fantastic throws at SAMs club.

Our weather in the NE has been so CRAZY that I've been sleeping with a throw from Kohls on my feet, over my spread.

Easy to kick off if it gets too warm overnight, and cozy to pull back up when my room gets chilly.

I washed this one last week and it came theough perfectly.

How funny, I kind of do the same thing... I have a wonderful crochet throw my Mom made for my Dad shortly befoare they passed and I've used it over the covers ever since. On top of that I use a Timberlake throw I got a long time ago.... I'm usually chilled when I go to bed then warm up and get hot so they all go on before I go to bed and I start stripping them as the night goes on.... lol!

Well, I see I'm not alone with appreciating a nice throw or three or four.

Once I discovered the Berkshire Velvet Soft Throws I was hooked.

I've purchased them for myself and for gifts for the past three years. I was sure that I had enough but when the Q offered the set of three throws for under $30.00, I couldn't pass them up. Love their softness and it's so nice to cuddle up on the sofa with a good throw and read or watch TV.

I keep telling myself that I have enough but do I really?

I have a Timberlake throw too. I wonder how many ladies here have heard of Bob Timberlake. And I also got it from the Q maybe 20 yrs. ago. I just use it for decoration though.

Thanks for posting ! I love throws too, and right now I'm on the look out for a couple of nice ones since I bought two new recliners last week, and I like to drape a throw over the back of each for cozying up in, on these long winter nights.

I have way too many throws. I find they take up a lot of room to store and occasionally get stuck with one that isn't even washable... a definite no no.

Thanks for posting I've been looking for the larger size Berkshire throws you mentioned, I want to use it on too of a good comforter set I have to prevent my cats from kneading it. I figured that that would love the softness of the throw and it will protect my comforter,

Also have purchased Too Many Throws. Looking around the house, we obviously have too many--and storing them is a challenge. There must be something about the comfort and cozy feeling they promise. Even today--when there is a New Berkshire Throw offered,-- had to tell myself, we do not need anymore. Enjoyed reading the comments from others who acquire throws. Thank You.

Reading this thread could get me into trouble! I may have to go to Sam's. I also have an obsession with Throws (and blankets). I just packed away about 10 Throws. I can't resist a good sale on warm and cozy Throws. Love the Birkshire and Luxe Velour Throw's on the Q and, my kitty's also love them.
