Costco has a bunch of these sleeping bags in (just not on the website) for $28.

They are 20 deg rated, 3 LBS. They have a shape that begs for a hammock mod (either Peapod or other). Zipper vent on the botton, and a off-center zipper could make it a real winner when I look at a lot of the mods I see.
But what about taking this oversized shape and making a OQ/UQ by just cutting it in half? It looks like it would be large enough to insulate the bottom side up past your shoulders, and the top could wrap around your body on both sides like a quilt. Downside would be the lack of a footbox, and that the interior is cotton.
I picked one up to replace an old mummy bag. Don't know the temp rating on the old bag, and would not let me side-sleep at all. This was unrolled at costco, and was really wide, so I picked it up anyway.
Am I missing something here? Seems like a good idea for a relatively cheap sleep system.
