Yup. Egyptian cotton. The higher the thread count, the better. You need to go AT LEAST 600. When you do, you also get a better, longer lasting, more comfortable sheet. 1500 thread count would be very much like satin.

Costco usually has some decent sheets (800), for a good price ($60 or so). From there, you can just keep an eye out for screamin' deals on VERY high thread count sheets. If you get some 800 sheets, you will then appreciate their superiority. Cheap, standard, muslin sheets are like sleeping between two pieces of sandpaper.

Oh, and BTW, a down comforter is the only way to go. By far.
