Hello! I'm sure you all deal with sleeping problems yourself but do any of you have suggestions for a good mattress or mattress topper? I am needing a new one and want it to be worth the money. Thanks!

" Some people swear the a Cuddle Ewe is the way to go. I couldn;t afford it so I ordered a foam topper from Costcco.com It was 1/3 of the price and It really worked for me. Plus they delivered. I didn't have to drag it to my car. "

" I got one of those memory foam mattress toppers from Costco, too. It made a big improvement in my constant waking from pain. About $200.00. It's like sleeping on a cloud! I also got a memory foam pillow. "

" No more flipping the mattress vertically and then horizontally once a week for me ! I've gone to an airbed and love it ! It's like a sleep number. Can't imagine anything but ! "

" I have a sleep number and love it. I also sleep with a flattish pillow between my knees.

i have been able to get out of the bed with no more " pain that I had when sleeping and sometimes with less.

it has been fantastic! "

" You're not cutting in! You're part of the discussion! I wondered about that too...My mattress is 11 years old and I have to flip it every couple of weeks. My husband passed away and I can't flip it alone so I went ahead and ordered a brand new mattress. I got one for 1/2 price at Sears. They are half off this weekend and if it's over $500 they take an extra 10%. I hope I like it! It is a sealy posturpedic Kason Bay Euro top......I think...ha! I hope you find one that helps you. "
