Let me know what you find. I'm on pillow #6. The fp is getting tired of the pile accumulating on the side. I have times where I grab a different pillow at night.
What have you tried?

I have a bunch of cheap-o pillows and I always managed to combine them to make a good pillow, but a couple of them have lost their loft so I'm trying to find a good single pillow. I bought a memory foam pillow about a month ago and it's OK when I sleep on my back, but it's too short for side sleeping and I tend to side sleep. I'll let you know how the latex foam one works out.

The memory foam pillow I got:

My last mattress was from Costco. Fantastic mattress. Current mattress is a made-in-America (!) memory foam from some odd brand, 1/5 the cost of a comparable mattress in a store, and is great.


Most of the big $ sleep stuff is a ripoff.

I think mine is from PriceSmart= equivalent of Costco in LatAM. Love it. Just the right level of firm. Makes the 5 hours of sleep that I do get blissful

I thought yvr was somehow related to Yosemite. Lol. But now it makes sense.


Anyway, just bought a new tripod. Three Legged Punks.
