I think there are deals to be had today.
I'm dreading shopping for a mattress.
Feels like shopping for a car. Salesman following, ugh. 4951

@lola: Just don't let them talk you into anything more than what you want. We bought the Tempurpedic adjustable king and love it, but the dude tried to get us to "upgrade" to the one that has remote cooling. I thought that was just a bit over the top, but to each his own.

@lola:
 
Just kind of know what you want before you go. When I bought mine I went in and told them I wanted to lay on the one(s) I liked for about 10 - 15 minutes and I would let them know when I was ready...

Maybe test at one store, get an idea of what you want, and buy somewhere else, once you have decided. Mattress Firm and Mattress One have stores on every corner. 4951

Make sure you get the interest free financing for like 8 years or whatever it is now LOL!I wasn't going to do it but why not put that money somewhere and let it grow some. Only a few industries that do it. Furniture is the other one. Assuming the mark up on this stuff is insane so it's not a big deal to them.   4951

Right! I buy appliances like that too.
And I put it on auto pay from my bank account so I don't miss a payment and it's paid within the allowable time. 4951

@CBP210: Nothing at all, but it added quite a bit to an already uber pricey bed, and most importantly, was an unnecessary extra for us. Our car seats already do that and didn't think the bed needed to as well.
 
Also, sleeping on a cold surface can make some people unnecessarily achey. Not great for joints.

@lola I got mine from the dump store. It's on a flat base but the bases lift up at the head only. No boxsprings needed. No special mattress needed on mine. I'm sure skeros can Oder the platform bases that adjust position. 4951

@donnatella: Oh I forgot about that about coldness and achy joints. Most old people have that issue. I will still consider though as I have a lot of time before I am classified as old.

@cgm10sne1:
Thanks. They are also advertising a mattress sale today.
My sister got a bed that has the head riser. She regrets not getting the foot riser too. What do you think?

@lola: Not a bad idea but just want something comfortable and relax after carrying about 20 pounds of gear on your body for 10 to 16 hours a day.

I agree about the car salesman pitch and the "return policy" is not very flexible in my experience. Last time we bought from one of the mattress stores we knew very quickly that the mattress was not good for us but they made us keep it for what seemed like months and then there was a very short time frame to try to work with them after that.  That was years ago so maybe things have changed. Since then we have bought several times from Macys and found them to be a good place to buy mattresses. Not sure about adjustable tho.   4951

@CBP210: Same here.  Have to get it done or the process started by the end of the year.   I'm holding out to see where they decide to put the dog park so that the area is more competitive for my interest. 4951
