Mattress Question

[KBear]

I am spoiled, but always having lived in good neighbourhoods the locations I have been in are clean and nice. .

Don’t know were I said the Sleep Country store was in a bad neighborhood, or not clean. To be clearer, the store was nice, and the sales guy was friendly. The problem was that there seemed to be high markups that evaporated with some lame excuse, and the sales guy was not very knowledgeable in being able to tell me what mattress would be most suitable for me. I would go to Sleep Country as well as some other stores, if in the market for a bed.

I would go to a high end bedding store and use their sales staff to help decide on a certain model. Then I would shop that model over the GTA for lowest price. It's cruel, but this is capitalism. And, if the store is presented with competitive offers they may sell it to you at a discount after all.

That's a good plan whether its a mattress you're after or any other product. Only problem is retailers have caught on and many have models that are specific to their store. That way you CAN'T shop around.....may be exact same item, but if the model number is different? TFB......(bTW it is called proprietary branding or something like that)

And Simmons & Sealy would make to specs. For example: Different model name & coil number between Sears vs. Sleep country.
