Amerisleep AS3 Reviews

  My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service    Amerisleep Mattress Reviews  We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia  (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f

Staples Coupon $30 Off a $60 Purchase

Happy Saturday, everyone! I had a wasted day, re-watching the Desperate Housewives series and napping, then went into manic-mode around 5 pm to compensate for all the laziness. Since then, I've organized my closet, cleaned my shoes and sorted them into piles to keep, give away, and attempt to sell. Oh, and I made a scrumptious chicken and sausage gumbo with brown rice for dinner. Oh, AND I'm typing this while on the treadmill! I'm pretty sure the moral of this story is that you should never feel bad for indulging in a lazy weekend - you can always make up for it later. Anyway, the point of this blog post is actually that I have a really great Staples coupon that expires TODAY and I'd like to give it away, rather than have it go to waste. First come, first served, so if you try to use it but it doesn't work, someone beat you to it. Staples: $30 off a purchase of $60 or more using promo code 6481 1030 8390 1477 The order can be placed online or over the phone.

Easter is Over

I'm in for some weird looks with this post. As you know, I've had trouble sleeping my entire life. People often ask how I can get through the day, let alone work full-time, after several nights of little or no sleep. I think it's because I'll usually get a good night's sleep (at least, my idea of good, which can be 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep) every couple of sleepless nights. Over the past two weeks, I have not been able to recharge with one of these nights of good sleep. I've been trying to go to bed at a set time, avoid caffeine, not watch TV or blog in bed, etc., but nothing ever helps. Sleeping pills leave me lying in bed feeling somewhat dazed, as if my mind is a frozen computer screen, but not asleep. After so many nights of uninterrupted sleep deprivation, I've been feeling lethargic, complete with a nonstop, pounding headache. I'm just not myself. I stumbled downstairs the other morning, groggy and grouchy, and got out a pair of sciss

Fuzzy Math at Albertsons

Remember my post from last year where my local Albertson's smashed my leg (on my birthday, to top things off)? Given their top-notch customer service, they were bound to be blogged again. On sale this week, 3 for $12 : Checking out, my 3 for $12 flowers rang up at $5. Why, you ask? Here is what the Albertson's cashier explained: "The first 2 bouquets are $5 each, and the third bouquet is $2." I am now enjoying my lovely assortment of flowers from Trader Joe's.
