Who Has a My Pillow?

Just slept on one recently...quite nice...never thought I'd ever buy a pillow.
I must have 6 or 7 of the regular ones sitting around already.
.
2 for 1 sale... $110 for two queen sized...on their way.

I generally only like a foam pillow. I don't like feather pillows, and I rarly like the other sorts of fillers. If I was tired, like after hiking all day or something, I think I could pass out on a rock. I think when i was in the boyscouts I used an air mattress that had a built in pillow.

I can too when camping, but it's not too comfy and with my back and neck problems I need a decent pillow. Of course, I'm also a cheap bastard. So my idea of a good pillow is splurging every few years and buying a new set at SAMs.

As a child I was allergic to everything on the planet...had to sleep on a foam pillow.
Believe it or not...I still use it...it's about 57 yrs. old now and as thick as a graham cracker.
Time for a new one, don't you think?

I really like the King sized pillows that are 3' long. When I end up sleeping on my stomache, I put it under my whole torso and prevents a sore neck.

Back to my good old graham cracker pillow, I guess.
Oh, half way through both nights with both of My Pillows, I reached for my graham cracker and promptly fell asleep.
Happy that I didn't toss it out.

Don go to sams club or Costco. They have several choices of pillows that aren't too pricey. You spend about 1/3 of your time in bed, shouldn't you be comfy?

An Amazon review:
.
"They told me that the exchange time had expired. That plus $30.00 in return mailing cost is what I am left with. The pillow now lines my dogs bed, He doesn't like it either."

Good pillows seem expensive until you figure out the "cost per hour" pretty cheap if you end up with a good nights sleep out of it.
When we bought our new bed the saleslady suggested new pillows (good up-sell lady) but what sealed the deal was she handed us each a disposable pillow case and we started trying out all the different options...Both my pillows are "soft" and the G/F are "firm". Plus one on upgrading to the King sized pillows as we, now there are just four pillows on the bed as opposed to the 7-8 there used to be.
Don't think I would be comfortable buying pillows on line without being able to try them out.

I used to be the kind to use a text book, rolled up jacket or a rock as a pillow but when I broke my neck things changed. I have a sleep number bed but my pillow(s) are one of those very hard dense memory foam pillows and a feather pillow which is really nothing more than a drool catching teddy bear, but it adds just the right amount of softness to the sand bag thing they call a memory foam pillow. I'll tell you what if I ever get invited to a pillow fight I am bringing this bastard, It'll look like Chuck Norris went to town when I finish.

Called them to get an RMA #.
I asked them if they use a machine to get the pillows into those tiny bags for shipping.
.
"Yes."

So, an empty Folger's coffee container with bottom cut out, and...
