With summer coming to a close, it’s time to start preparing for earlier evenings, crisper weather and chillier nights at home. One of the most delightful and comfortable joys of the winter season is being able to settle in for a warm and cozy night at home, watching as the snow covers everything outside even as you remain as toasty as can be, snacking indoors.
What’s more, you can prepare for winter and create this comfy night in for yourself for just $20 at your local Five Below, the discount retail chain. Keep reading to find out what you should add to your shopping cart.
Thermal Socks
The first step in your $20 winter prep is to be warm, and cozy.
You can start by keeping your feet warm — these thermal socks are only $5.00, very thick and deep-cushioned to keep all the little piggies as sizzling as possible while the snow piles up outside. They’re also perfect for active wear, in case you need to step out into the cold.
Flannel Pants
To match those comfy socks, next you’ll need these plaid flannel lounge pants for only $5.55. They’re great for simply lounging around the house and will keep you as warm as can be. With the socks, you’ll have only spent $10.55 so far.
Long Sleeve Shirt
Next up? You definitely need a soft and warm long sleeve shirt to go with this cozy ensemble. It’s comfortable, it comes in a holiday green and, best of all, it’s UPF (meaning it offers UV protection) so you can also wear it in the summertime as “the sunscreen that won’t wash off.” And at only $2.50, the shirt brings your total to a very manageable $13.05.
Coffee and Cookies
Now that your winter outfit is covered, it’s time to move on to snacks. These Pillsbury Mini Soft Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies make for a perfect winter’s evening snack at $2.00.
Last but not least is a little bit of Dunkin French Vanilla coffee for only $3.29 to wash those cookies down in front of a fireplace. All of which brings your grand total to just $18.34 — leaving you with an extra $1.66 in your pocket.
