Yesterday while out shopping for new sheets and bedding stuff, I listened to the advise of a female friend and paid attention to the thread count. Instead of getting the least expensive package containing the most items, I paid attention to the thread count. I'm a number's guy so I immediately recognized the higher the count the more expensive it was going to cost me! With today's technology, my cell phone, I did some comparable shopping. I used my camera phone to take pictures of the sheets AND the price tag! I went to BCF (Burlington Coat Factory) Marshalls and TJ Maxx. They all had great deals. I actually spent $120 on sheets and pillows just for the bed! I think that was the price of my first mattress set!! I got a 500 thread count set from BCF. It matched my comforter perfectly. I didn't wash it...just put it on. I know a lot of ladies wash there's but even though I'm color coordinating sheets and stuff... I'm still a guy! But man... when I got in...laid down... I was like WOW! Big difference! Made my old sheets feel like something they covered Moses up with and sent him down the river! Needless to say I had a good night sleep and was late to work. Quality does make a difference. Next on the list, Egyptian cotton!
