PURE LUXURY FOR LESS

Posted Sunday, June 22, 2008, at 9:16 PM

Luxury for Not a Lot of $$$
When talking about bed sheets, it's all about the thread count.

Trust me, if you have been a 150's type of person, your life is about to change. It's about to dramatically change. We're talking skipping-through-fields-of-daisies type of change. We're talking about better sleep and a whole new you.

You, you… well… simply cannot fathom until you experience it.

Let me tell you, there's something magical that happens at the 400 thread count threshold. Scruffy cotton goes to silk-type luxury. I don't know how to exactly explain it, but just trust me and ditch the 150, 200, or even 300's and go with at least a 400 thread count set of bed sheets.

It's something I highly recommend, and that's something you won't regret. After sleeping on 400+ sheets just one night, let me know if I'm wrong…

PS -- This winter buy a bed warmer, which is something like an electric blanket for your mattress. You won't want to get out of bed…

Sounds like you stayed at a Hampton Inn recently! They have the best bedding of all hotels! They sell their line of bedding and towells to the publi at their hotels.

Oh yea...next thing you know you'll want to upgrade to 1000 thread count(per square inch) scrubbed egyptian cotton.

A few extra dollars but worth every penny.

I've had a set of 1,000 thread count sateen Egyptian cotton sheets for about a year now. I don't think I can ever go back the the sheets like I had before. They are a bit pricey, but they are worth the extra coin.

furball, no Hampton Inn recently. Actually, I discovered this a few years back, but just got around to sharing. It's something that's very nice for not a lot more money. Well worth it!

Dairyman, quite the contrary. Work is very busy, and I need to be alert and awake from a good night's sleep. Multi-tasking takes energy!

Eggman, I haven't upgraded past 600 -- I think -- so I don't know how much better 1,000 would be. I know there's a world of difference between 300 and 400 for some reason. I'll have to put some 1,000's on my Christmas list I suppose...

If I were you, Dairyman, I'd just look on the package when you buy them.
