I have one of those do not clean pillows and I drool like a fiend. I actually put a hand towel over my pillow at night to sop up the drool and you can move it around so your head isn't in the wet spot. I'm sure the pillow is still disgusting though so let's pretend it doesn't exist. But yes--sleep by number bed saved our marriage. Or my back. I need my rock, hubby needs to sleep on a pile of cotton balls.Princess Judy Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870980058627037243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-9922587407756036652012-07-26T21:28:47.654-04:002012-07-26T21:28:47.654-04:00Great minds think alike!

Not a brita, a different one that attaches directly to the tap. Might have to go get another one... but I don't want to repeat this cycle every two years!Anne @ Unique Gifterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17304287261947133702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-62697667081454629902012-07-23T13:47:22.041-04:002012-07-23T13:47:22.041-04:00Oh, I'm not sure I'd say it saved our marr...Oh, I'm not sure I'd say it saved our marriaged but it probably saved my job. I was getting such bad sleep that I was walking into work almost an hour late sometimes because of how tired I was. For us it was worth pinching pennies, becuase it might've cost me my salary otherwise. <br /><br />I guess it depends on what kind of bed you have now. If we had had something that was goldilocks, too firm (for him), too soft (for me), then the sleep number might not have been worth it. They have (relatively) inexpensive ones, but those have less padding than the more expensive ones and so they're not so great for people who like sleeping on a cloud. <br /><br />I guess it depends how miserable your hubs is. If he's as miserable as I was, it really is worth it. As averse as I am to debt, this is one purchase I would've been willing to finance if we'd had to. Sleep affects every part of your life. We've had ours for almost two years now and amazingly, not only am I getting into work on time, but I'm going in 1.5 hours early, so I can leave early and enjoy more time at home. I seem to get sick less too. And my back doesn't hurt! Just my two cents. Good luck with your decision!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03828440573673170480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-40360868508302948552012-07-22T22:19:59.523-04:002012-07-22T22:19:59.523-04:00Hi, Joanna.

I've only slept on one of those beds once (at a hotel). It was the best sleep ever. I keep dreaming of the day that I finally give in and buy one. It will be pure bliss. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my blog the other day. I hope to see you again. ;)Heidi @Adventures of a Thrifty Momhttp://adventuresofathriftymom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-56787059138766178092012-07-21T00:14:52.664-04:002012-07-21T00:14:52.664-04:00I think I've bought things that say not to cle...I think I've bought things that say not to clean them, but I totally have. Pillows. Stuffed animals. Certain clothing items. I generally say F-it lol! <br /><br />But back to this Sleep Number bed...I am intrigued. The Hubs SWEARS we NEED one as he likes it super soft and I like it as hard as a board. Keep me posted on how it's working out for you!Megynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09237520120571515528noreply@blogger.com
