Buying a Bed

[Kevy Baby]

I will say that the Tempur-Pedic mattresses are amazingly comfortable, but that I will never own one (much to Susan's chagrin) because my body is like a radiator and the Tempur-Pedic's reflect your body heat back at you. Also, they are really expensive.

I have a personal dislike for SnS as their commercials make fingernails on a chalkboard a welcome respit. Because of this, I will never buy anything from them. Besides, their slogan makes absolutely no logical sense: " we'll either lower our price to match someone else's or we will give the mattress for free."

This whole thing started when I went to SnS with my friend for his bed. I didn't like the sales tactics used (pushing the most expensive bed with their fancy electronic pressure sensor thingie). But I did find a bed that I love there, but it was $1200. I can get the bed I am eyeballing + a duvet cover and pillows for $1200.

Not that I have $1200 to start with. But I need a new bed. Mine is 15 years old (and it was a hand-me-down).

The set I am looking at is just under $900. As far as I can tell, that is a good price for a Simmions queen pillow top. But I could be wrong.
