Walmart’s Mainstays throw measures 50 by 60 inches and could be just what you need for snuggling up during movie nights or for adding to your bed to make it warmer.
This budget-friendly buy is said to be super soft and also is made with 75 per cent recycled materials.
The fabric is extra “plush” and comes in four colors to choose from.
Their red, white and blue plaid design could be perfect for adding a festive touch in your home.
However, there is also a blue-colored one with dogs on it, a leopard-print one and a yellow and blue checked one too.
One of the best things about the throw is that it is machine washable and can be cleaned immediately if you get a dreaded wine or food stain on it.
The Walmart website states: “Whether you’re tailgating, in need of an extra layer of warmth while napping, or simply curling up on the couch for a TV session, wrap yourself in comfort and style with this plush throw by Mainstays.”
The throw has racked up over 1,400 five-star reviews online, with many people sharing why they love it so much.
One person wrote: “I bought this for my Mom’s 91st birthday! She loves the size and print! “Says it’s so soft and beautiful.
“Beautiful plush blanket and great price Highly recommend, thanks.”

Another person who left a glowing rating said: “I like how soft the throw blanket is.
“I wanted a throw blanket that was not too heavy for days when it’s not very cold, but just a little chilly and you don’t really want to turn the heat on yet.
“Most of my throw blankets are heavy and I get a little too hot when using them when the weather is just a little chilly.
“This throw is perfect for those types of days.”
It’s not the only Walmart bargain causing a stir.

Why doesn’t Walmart offer Apple Pay?
CEO of Walmart Doug McMillon has revealed why stores don’t offer Apple Pay on Stratechery with Ben Thompson.
Though using Apple Pay at the retailer has been an ongoing conversation, McMillon emphasized that “We would like to have the customers open our app in the store all the time.”
The app can be used to help find items in the store, but it can also be used to pay for your purchases.
“That’s one of the things that we would like people to use our app for,” he said.
