    I was apprehensive about not even trying it out in a store, but she was adamant - and she made a good choice.

    My shoulders and hips would hurt in the old one - cut off circulation to my arms, but this one is great. Haven't slept this good in years.

    I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that FedEx had a label screw up like that. Smdh

    Biggest problem we see with Fed Ex ground is label issues. Part of the problem is they will cover up the label we put on it when we ship it out with their’s so the get to the right hands “failsafe” is no longer readable.

    One question for you…… was it a dark and stormy night or was that just to enhance the story? Either way I like it but I was just curious. Lol

    I grew up in the 70s and I remember at my aunts and uncles houses both houses they never ever locked the doors. I pretty sure my aunt never had a house key to even unlock the door. Now a days you can’t even have a package delivered unless you know your going to be home from fear of people walking off with your stuff. People are not quite like they use to be. They would just soon take your stuff and lie to your face about it then to actually go out and earn an honest wage to pay for the stuff themselves. People are becoming more and more a real let down.

    hmmmmi wonder where the first mattress really is? if it was delivered by fed ex to the house but the police went and checked the house and it wasnt there? was it already on the bed with sheets and pillows? or did they sell it off to someone else? interesting story. thanks for sharing blair . i thought only weird/annoying stuff like that happened to me.

    No, that’s just the old “Dark and stormy night” cliche start to a novel.

    That explains it now. I’d not considered them covering the original shipper label.

    No doubt sold already. No way they would have invited the police in the house if it was in there.

    Dishonesty and theft has always irritated me.
