Do you use/abuse it?
I'm anti-snooze. I find anytime I use that button, it eventually makes my day infinitely more difficult to get started. |

abuse it like a jr. high boy and his first chance with boobies.
I stumble, grab whatever I can to keep it going, and end up not hearing it tell me to get up the first few times. |

i'm all or nothing.. most mornings i jump out of bed as soon as my alarm goes off, otherwise i'll hit snooze for an hour and a half and won't make
it to the gym (which is what happened this morning). i try to make it a rule that i'm not "allowed" to hit the snooze button.

i intentionally set the alarm a little earlier than necessary so i can afford a snooze if needed. it is only set to snooze for 5 mins, so not all is lost if i
hit it once..or twice..or sometimes about 9 times.

i have to set the alarm early to allow for snooze time. i sometimes wake up and realize i've already hit the snooze button 2 or 3 times and don't
remember doing it.

I average about 0.25 snoozes per morning and its offset by 0.25 wake up before the alarm goes off per morning.

I used to abuse the snooze button, but the times have changed and I no longer use an alarm clock. My cell phone generally gets me up the first time, although
I have been known to turn the alarm off and keep sleeping.
I made a sports guy mail bag with this question many years ago, wondering if it still holds true... Does your alarm clock's snooze alarm go off every 9 minutes? And why can't we change the 9 minutes to something else? Every alarm clock I ever had was 9 minutes and it always bugged me. |

I place my alarm on the opposite side of the room so I'm forced to get out of bed and walk over to it to turn it off. On the other hand, my girlfriend uses
the snooze more times than I can count each morning.

I never use it. My freshman year roommate in college used to hit it about seven times starting at 8 in the morning. I wanted to kill him when I didn't have
class till like noon. What's the point? Just set your alarm for 45 later and get all of the sleep in one chunk instead of 8 minutes at a time.

i abuse the snooze button. i use my cell phone, which has a 5-minute snooze. i am pretty bad with the snooze and i'll usually hit it a bunch of times.
Sometimes i dont even realize i am doing it and after 5 snoozes, the alarm shuts off, which is why i also have an alarm set for 30 minutes after my original
alarm time.

i have two alarms - one on the cell and then the alarm clock. i always end up just turning off the phone alarm right away, but definitely hit snooze at least
once a morning.

i usually just hit it once to shut it up. i'm either out of bed before it goes off again or, occasionally, i'll hit it it again. i'm always up
before the second time it goes off.
my snooze is 7 minutes. |
