Default Mattress shopping

Mattress shopping, I noticed people are willing to drop prices fast, but how low can they go on mattresses? I understand that each store has a different name for the same mattress, but how do I get the best price?

Any former mattress sales people here?

Seconds @ Sleepys. 1/2 off for a bit of dirt. Go cheap on boxsprings, spend $$ on the mattress.
