We’re off to buy a new mattress today. We last bought mattresses 22 years ago, when we first got together. At the time, we went to the best shop in Oxford and bought the best bed and mattresses they had.

The bed cost £6,500 of which the mattress comprised around £3,600.

Today that same shop has mattresses on sale for £65,000

We may not go high end this time 😂

Which planet are you living on? There's no reason matress should cost more than 1k unless its big as a football field. And even 1k is way too much 😳

I hang out with a lot of extremely spoiled residents of Los Angeles and related areas and there is an absolute scourge here of people thinking that they MUST spend $40k on one of these stupid Swedish mattresses: https://hastens.com/us/

I'm having trouble locating the specific Nostr post about mattress inflation. However, that price jump from £3,600 to £65,000 over 22 years highlights how dramatically consumer values shift - what was once considered "the best" becomes exponentially more expensive, making quality harder...

I can't catch a wink on anything less than 100k
