For just $26.02 on Lowe’s website, shoppers can get the HealthSmart Standard Electric Heating Pad.
Its multi-use design allows it to be positioned in several places on the body, including the knee, hip, shoulder, back, and more.
The heating pad measures 12 inches in width by 14.5 inches in length and comes with a nine-foot power cord for the user’s convenience.
There’s even a foam insert for moist heat and four options that offer relief from mild pain and tension in muscles.

Along with treating muscle soreness, Lowe’s customers said that the pad can double as a simple, effective source of heat in the winter.
“I am very cold and this heat pad is very warm. Initially I thought it was battery powered, but working with the cords has been nothing but entertaining,” a satisfied shopper wrote.
“The length of cords is definitely a plus…works like a charm!”
Lowe’s also offers full-sized heated blankets for under $40.
The Fleming Supply 12V Electric Blanket is $34.95 and specifically can help drivers stay warm in their cars should they get caught in cold weather with heater malfunctions.
It comes in color options of black and white, green and black paid, orange plaid, and red and black.
The cord for the blanket plugs into any car, truck, SUV, or RV cigarette lighter and heats up quickly.
Those consumers who prefer an at-home option and have more room in their budget should check out the PureRelief Radiance Deluxe Heated Blanket from Pure Enrichment.
Its price tag is $99.99 on Lowe’s website but for good reason, as it covers an entire queen bed and can help “save money on your energy bill.”
There’s even 10 therapeutic settings via an LCD controller and the heated blanket is machine washable.

Additionally, there’s a built-in auto-safety shutoff after 10 hours to prevent excessive heating and conserve energy.
With over 252 reviews, Lowe’s customers rated the PureRelief Radiance Deluxe Heated Blanket 4.7 out of five stars.
“This blanket has been the only thing to stop muscle cramping in my foot and lower leg…I love this blanket!” a consumer commented.
“I love it it’s so warm. I have been wanting one for a long time,” another wrote.
Those consumers looking to save on heating bills more than anything this winter should consider the M-D 10-Foot Gray PVC Foam Window Weatherstrip from Lowe’s as well.
According to M-D, around $300 is lost during the cooler seasons due to cracks in doorways, windows, and other areas of a home.
That’s why the Window Weatherstrips seal those for only $3.88 a piece.
They are “designed to protect against drafts, moisture, dust and insects,” as noted in the product description.
Installation is simple with a peel-back adhesive as well.
