Best place in Austin for a mattress?

[upset_horn]

Where's a good place in Austin to pick up a cheap/blemished new mattress? I don't care what it looks like as long as it's the real deal and a great price.

If you can afford to pay for a mattress.... don't bother with mine. It really isn't doing my back any favors.

By the way, my wife's younger brother was a mattress salesman for a short bit. He said that mattresses are marked up insanely... but the price is completely negotiable. Don't be afraid to offer 50% of their asking price... because they will still walk away with a hefty profit. The salespeople are paid a percent of the revenue, so it is in their best interest to sell you a mattress at a higher price... but a sale is better than no sale, so like I said... negotiate!

On a completely separate note, I guess I should call him my brother in law... but we are recently married and 'brother in law' just sounds so darn strange.

Usually, the bedroom.

ATX mattress sales! they may not have what you want, but it's worth a shot cause their prices are so good.

The best mattress is the "Heavenly Mattress" @ the Westin Hotels. They sell 'em to the public.
