Then don't ask for a 0 degree bag. heck, ask for an 80 degree bag, and you can just sleep in your clothing. it'll pack small.

Seriously.

Best way to have your bag as small as possible is to take a bag without very much insulation - which if it's less insulation than you need will mean you're either uncomfortable, or using extra clothing to make up for your "decreased size" in sleeping bag which ends up being larger and heavier.

not that your snugpack might not be bad for a bag usable down to freezing or so, but you might also want to think about how much it *weighs*.
