Grab a go-to for comfort at home with this plaid fleece throw from Cannon.

The woven design stays soft and fuzzy, providing you with coziness around the clock. Soft colors easily elevate home furnishings.

Additionally, right now there is 10% off home products making this only $3.59 (if you spend $50.) Use code HOME10 at checkout.

Note: I am on bed rest and could not do in store pick-up. I ordered 4 blankets and shipping for me was under $5 making this deal affordable for my kids teachers!  I added this cute Fleece Navidad Gift Tag.

Shop Your Way Rewards + FREE Shipping

Kmart and Sears often have great deals and often less than $10.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.
