Be careful how you ask for it. My buddy Jeff did something similar to the above, and he ended up buying and entire supermarket chain!

You want "Outdoor Research" brand "Firebrand" mittens.

Not close to cheap, but they are warm.

Ok all I’ve got is cheap mittens

So DW surfed the net and found a pair reasonably priced mittens and they should be delivered tomorrow. A few minutes ago I went with her food shopping just to get out of the house. I was in the Acme supermarket and came upon a display of marked down winter stuff. One pair of mittens with thinsulate sticker attached to them marked down to $6.50. I tried them on definitely much warmer and not bulky. I think they will block the better wind too. Guess what at checkout they were $3.50. I think I was just born lucky sometimes. It’s up to 40 today but it humid and raw out there. I found out the thread bare mittens I’m using were free with some donation. IMG_0013.jpg
I am now officially in mitten heaven. I took my new mittens out for a test drive today -45 minute walk. They are awesome too warm for today but tomorrow morning when its 25 degrees out they will be a joy.

Hope there is no danger of resorting to cannibalism!
