How often do you buy new pillows?  email this discussion to a friend?

With spring I like to freshen things up. One of the things I am going to do is to buy new pillows for my bed as mine are getting kind of flat. I don't sleep with feather pillows so I'll be trying to find something that will last a while. It's not that often I buy new pillows...what about you?

when i start getting headaches.that means they've gone too flat for support.it seems many pillows don't last very long for fullness any more.
though sometimes i can get a little more use by fluffing them back up in the washer/dryer.

I tend to buy at least one pair of new pillows a year when I see them on offer and I put two flat ones into one pillow case to give them extra life. Ellie :D

That's a very good idea too!

Hello jill
I would buy a new pillow at least every six months for me..I love the feel of a new pillow and I cant use those supposedly 'healthful' pillows.
Give me a good old fashioned pillow anytime..I cant use the feather pillows though, they make me sneeze LOLhappy


myLot reputation of 100/100. jillhill (17702)   ranked 2 out of 4,455 in sleeping  4 years ago

I think I need to do it more often like you do! THanks for posting!


myLot reputation of 95/100. TheHairDresser (3350)  4 years ago

Your welcome jill! Well I have to, because they lose all their plumpness lolhappy

every couple of months, my partner sleeps with them bent in half so it takes the plumpness out of the pillow....i bought 4 last week and they are squashed already...


myLot reputation of 100/100. jillhill (17702)   ranked 2 out of 4,455 in sleeping  4 years ago

Oh my!!!! I bet that does take the plumpness out of them!


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4277)  4 years ago

I don't buy pillows very often. When they begin to go flat, I go shop. We both like feather pillows because they are easy to fold up in order to elevate the head while watching television. I can't seem to get comfy using a foam pillow. When we travel I go nuts trying to sleep on a foam pillow. Takes me forever to get comfy.


myLot reputation of 100/100. jillhill (17702)   ranked 2 out of 4,455 in sleeping  4 years ago

I threw out a bunch of feather pillows as everyone in my family has allergies....I don't get new ones often enough...I am kind of looking forward to it!

I would buy new pillows more often but Jeff doesn't like them.
He holds on to his pillow for as long as they hold up in the laundry.
I have tried buying them and just switching them on laundry day but he complains that they aren't "right". Susan

I dont buy pillows for myself that often, most of the pillows I have are given by my friends as birthday gifts. I only buy when it gets too thin, but so far all of them are stilla live and very comfy to use, so for this season i still have nor eason to buy one, I still enjoy their company on my sleep.

have a nice day and take care!

I dont like new pillows im weird but I love when my pillow gets nice and flat. Half the time in the night my pillow will end up on the floor anyways.


myLot reputation of 100/100. jillhill (17702)   ranked 2 out of 4,455 in sleeping  4 years ago

If mine ended up on the floor I'd be down there searching for it! LOL

I use feather pillows and I have them cleaned and new ticking put on every three years or so. It is expensive but feather pillows are expensive so I do it. I also have pillow protectors for all of my pillows...it saves on the ticking.

hello jillhill

i like to replace our pillows once every five or so months. i like the Martha Stewart pillows that you can get at K-Mart and when i do buy new pillows, i like to try to catch them on sell. that way it feels twice as good sleeping on the new pillows. i think that the pillows have private selection or something like that written on them. happy

have a beautiful afternoon.


myLot reputation of 100/100. jillhill (17702)   ranked 2 out of 4,455 in sleeping  4 years ago

I'll have to check that out next time I'm at Kmart! thanks!


myLot reputation of 93/100. RLFinNash (5720)  4 years ago

your very welcome. btw, also my bathroom rugs are also Martha Stewart. i find that her stuff lasts longer than the rest of the products does that i have purchased of her line of things. happy
