Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket Review & Giveaway

This past week we decided it was time for a beach trip. We couldn't stand it any longer, we packed up our Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket, umbrella, cooler and headed to the beach. We don't like to carry heavy items to the beach. It is a long walk down and the Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket is perfect because it is so light weight. The Tuffo Blanket has a carrying bag with large storage pockets.
This is not the first time we used the Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket, but it was the first time we used it dealing with strong winds. The wind was blowing so hard it broke our umbrella and keep blowing our blanket away. We added the mini drink cooler and drinks on the edge. Other than the strong wind effecting the Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket, it was great and I love the beautiful colors on it. See below how my son enjoyed stretched out on it at home too.
The Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket will certainly come in handy for our fishing trips & camp outs. Interior polyester batting sandwiched between durable water-resistant nylon backing and soft cotton top measuring 54" x 84" 

Tuffo also offers Car Organizers, waterproof coveralls aka ( Muddy Buddy), and water proof totes. Tuffo gear is for families on the go. Thanks to Tuffo for sponsoring "The Hotter Than Summer Event " & for giving one reader a Tuffo Water Resistant Blanket.
