Collin is testing splurge-worthy faves against their affordable alternatives to see which deliver a luxury look for less, and the results might surprise you!

Recently, Collin compared a team-fave Anthro blanket to a similar faux fur Walmart blanket.

Collin was clear, the Anthropologie blanket is better. But…

The Anthro blanket is thicker, feels more luxe, and overall, wins on plushness. That said, she also admitted she’d never pay full price and only buys it on sale because that $100+ price tag is a lot. And the Walmart blanket still surprised her. For just over $20, Collin said the oversized Walmart blanket is really good.

The quality feels solid, it’s large enough to fit a queen-size bed (or king for just a few dollars more!), and she couldn’t get over how affordable it is, especially when blankets in general can get wildly expensive these days.

Basically, if you want cozy without the splurge, the Walmart lookalike is absolutely worth a try!

    Have you tried the Comft brand blankets by any chance? I have been told these are the absolute best, but I haven’t been willing to spend the money yet!
