Unless your paying for an airfare, you will be finding out by yourself.

I dunno what it is. Its a queensize bed, frame was $199 and the mattress was like $350. Its comfy, and I like it, and it is covered by my mink Ford blanket, and slept on by a Ford (me).

Sunday through to thursday nights, a nice comfy queen size bed. No idea on brand or anything.
Friday and Saturday nights, where ever i pass out... front lawns, back of utes, random couch's, school paygrounds, on top of shade sails all get a mention here... Great fun being young

So true!! Ive had some bad sleeps. Footpath was bad, beach was OK, road was crap, toilet was not so good either. Middle of winter outside, about 8 degrees, in shorts and a shirt on a chair with a cushion for a blanket was the worst ever.

I've got a queen size bed. It didn't cost me a cent, and it's pretty comfy!

When my wife starting working over here...
(Californian Girl) she wanted out of my double bed (with $200 mattress) so badly her first purchase with her new income was a 24 months interest free full bed suite from Captain Snooze King size, hardwood sleigh style bed with leather inserts, brass fittings etc... etc... the mattress alone cost $4500  : bed suite total was $11,000 I wasn't really sure this was a good idea... but she was earning $500-$800 a week as a casual... so I let it slide 11 months later she fell pregnant and stopped working  : and now my project car money is paying off her bedsuite  : Have to say though.... all my life I was a very light sleeper, But now I can sleep through a screaming babies midnight rampage... Its very comfy ! |

Double bed... frame made by my grandfather who's been a carpenter for 55 years. Better then any of the flimsy junk I've seen in furniture stores.

I got a queen size pillow top mattress made by Kingcoil. Was the best investment I made. My back has thanked me ever since. Cost me only $700. I will never go back to those cheap a$$ bed packages ever again. Plus it has good support for those rough nights :hihi:
Next will be either an ensemble or one of those designer type bed frames.

tie a tennis ball to the lower part of your back, that way you are forced to lay on your side or you will feel the ball if you lay on your back. I have heard it reduces the effects of snoring. Dont know how much of this is true but it wont hurt to try it if you havent already. Last resort would be to sleep in seperate rooms, or see a specialist.

The missus thought it'd be a good idea to get a bed from Ikea of all places. I'm about one inch from attacking the creaking piece of crap with a drill and a box of self tappers.
