Now that summer season has passed, be sure to rifle through markdowns at department and discount stores for cotton jersey sheets(t-shirt material). In my opinion, they are as cozy as flannel sheets without the cheap feeling. (no, AD, not that kind of cheap feeling.). I found some yesterday for less than $10. Woo hoo!!!

It is possible to enjoy the occasional cheap feeling without feeling cheap, you know. ;)
ReplyDeleteGood one!
ReplyDeleteTam will not use cotton jersey, claiming it tends to wrap up around her ("They attack me!"); but in the winter, my private stock of well-washed flannel sheets gets seriously raided.
ReplyDeleteI'm so low-class, I have never really got the whole snooty-bedding thing. If my sheets are soft and there's enough blankets and comforters stacked up to stay warm, I'm happy.
I am fascinated by good bedding, but have never acted on it, to speak of, beyond washing what I've got, and keeping my threadcounts at 200 or higher.
ReplyDeleteA buddy mentioned to me that, at the State Fair, they were selling 1000 thread count Egyptian Cotton sheets for $40 a set for king size. Well, hell. I didn't even know that threadcounts came in that high a number. So I bought two sets.... and discovered at home that while they may be "Egyptian" (style), they were NOT cotton. They still sleep pretty well, actually. We got 'em marked down for $20/set. Gen U Wine Chinese synthetic Egyptian-style sheets. Haw.
