Another thing -- for situations where you're dying for your heating pad but you have no electrical outlet OR you need to be mobile, I am seriously in love with the heat patch things. They're sold for menstrual cramp relief, by Thermacare I think. Basically it's this big wide heat patch that you stick on the inside of your panties. (hmm -- I just realized that from your name I can't tell if you're male or female -- if you're male, please don't take that as some kind of personal insult to your manhood.) They're good for 8 hours. I've heard other people say they've found generic ones for about $1 apiece, but I've never found any generics, just the brand-name. They're still not too bad, about $2 apiece. If you're wearing something bulkier or loose, like jeans, they're not noticeable at all. Otherwise, if you're wearing thin or tight pants then you'll probably want to wear a longer shirt.
Anyway, just a suggestion -- I've used them on several occasions when I had to be away from home and they've saved my life.
