Guest Cathy Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 As the same as everybody else sleeping is a problem and I have been saving hard to get a tempur pillow. Cheap it wasn't but when I bought it my mum mentioned she hoped it would help me sleep better in the shop because I had a SAH the assistant said to me because it was medical I didn't have to pay the VAT on it. Filled in a short form and that was it. Every penny helps so I was pleased. Not sure if it is a general thing but thought I would pass it on. The shop has a web site http://www.bedexpert.co.uk Molly Quote
Karen Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Thanks for that Molly ..... I didn't realise how expensive the Tempur pillows actually were ..... but if it works and you get a decent night's sleep, then it's worth it. Didn't realise that you could get the VAT deducted if it was for medical needs ...... Hope that you're now sleeping like a baby.... Quote
Guest mollie Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 Oh dear......just looked on line at the tempur pillows. Will try and get my kids to club together to get me one .................it's my birthday soon so who knows. May be worthwhile having a word with my boss to see if she can get them any cheaper. Will ask her when I take in my next sick certificate from the doctor........if I remember.........lol. Thanks for that Molly Mollie xxx Quote
poppy Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Hello all, My name is Tina, I am the other half of Dee aka (shawnsheep) Dee was suffering with his neck hurting a lot and whilst I was in Sainsburys the other day I saw a memory foam pillow for £11.99 so I bought it for him he said it does help him to get more comfortable when sleeping a lot cheaper than the Tempura pillows Tina Quote

Guest ElaineW Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Yes I guess what works for some does not for others. I am a very poor sleeper - have been for years. buying a memory foam pillow was the best £12.00 I have ever spent! Elaine Quote
