Hey married people! This one's for you. Apparently.

Forget paper. Forget silver. Cancel the down payment on those two carat diamond studs. This anniversary get your partner something you’ll both benefit from. And no, we’re not talking about a romantic holiday to the Bahamas.

We’re talking about this: The Better Marriage Blanket.

The world has seen a lot of great (read: bizarre) infomercials over the years but this has got to be the best since the one with the free set of steak knives, or at least, it’s better than the steam mop.

So, it’s a blanket. But it’s a blanket with a difference. You see, it’s made from military-grade fabric. And why? Because just like soldiers need high-grade materials to protect against military weapons, apparently couples need tools to combat their own battles in bed.

That is, the fight of flatulence.

Yes. Someone actually thought of this idea, designed it, created it (in two colours – variety and choice are the spice of life) and made it to sell in the global marketplace.

The advertisement is priceless. And the blanket? Only, three easy payments of $39.95.
