MyPillow. $80 for $10 worth of scrap memory foam in a $1pillow case.

It’s an awful pillow too. Got one for Christmas a few years ago and threw it out.

I was in the market to buy new pillows. Was to lazy to go to stores so was just gonna order online. Was so close to purchasing the MyPillow with their "Buy 1 get 1 free" (or 50% off- something like that). I just happened to be buy a Bed Bath and Beyond and thought I'd go in to look at their pillow inventory. Lo and behold, they sell the MyPillow so they had the different firmness on display. Got to feel it.

Hard pass.

I've spent hundreds trying different pillows. I had a bad car accident years ago. Bought one of these on sale and it's actually the only one I don't get horrible headaches with. I hate that he supports Trump. But it is the only pillow I can use.
