Hey everyone,
I have a quick heads up on a really great deal I came across today! I
was shopping at my local Costco when I found these little babies...
Needless to say I flipped out. I try my best to keep things in my life organized to the best of my abilities and that is no different for how I organize my clothes! I first discovered the Joy Mangano "Huggable Hangers" I want to say about a year ago watching MakeupByMel's videos on YouTube. Before I decided to use the Huggable Hangers I was using natural wooden hangers from IKEA. The only down side to the wooden hangers were that as my wardrobe grew my closets seemed to shrink! I really love the style of the wooden hangers to me they look very chic almost as if my closet were a boutique. I think eventually when I have my own home and a bigger closet I'd switch back to the wooden but for now Huggable Hangers are perfect for me especially since I have smaller closets.
The Huggable Hangers which can be purchased from Target sells them $4.99 for a 5 pack of hangers. One dollar per-hanger I wouldn't say is "steep" but it does add up. I bought them because I love how slim they are, how well they grab onto my clothes, and how much room it honestly saves me! My closet was so packed I couldn't even slide the hangers along, but the Huggable Hangers fixed that problem.
As I said the only down side to these hangers were the price but not anymore! While I was in Costco I found these hangers which I would consider almost exact dupes for the Joy Mangano brand. These hangers for a box of 35 is only $7.99!! They are made of the same velvet material and nearly impossible to differentiate.
The Hanger on the top is from Costco, and the bottom hanger is the Joy Mangano brand. They are the same size, same width, pretty much identical except for 2 minor differences which are not noticeable when there are clothes on them and are hanging in the closet.
The first difference is...
The Joy Mangano brand have a JM stamped at the base of the hanger hook which is just for looks and serves really no purpose.
The other difference is...
The shape or size of the hangers are slightly different. Costco brand on the left and "JM" brand on the right. I hung both hangers in my closet and did not have a problem, however I could see the hooks not fitting around thicker closet rods.
Aside from the small details these Costco dupes are just as good as the official "Huggable hangers" if not, dare I say better due to their amazing price of about .23 cents per/hanger.
