Big Lots buy one matress get box spring for $10

Quote from brettatk : These are Serta mattresses, it's not like they are made in someone's basement. Are there better made mattresses out there? Well of course but there is nothing wrong with these and there are far worse out there. I'm sure for some people they'd throw their nose up at anything bought from Big Lots. If you feel better then go ahead and spend more at Sear's or somewhere else that sells Serta.

You realize that brand names don't sell the same models at every store right? They have budget lines, designed especially to be sold at stores like Walmart and Big Lots so that the brand name and price will grab your eye. I'm not saying that every mattress at a budget store is crap, but try it out and don't just buy it because it's a brand name and it's cheap. IMO, the ones at Big Lots are typically crap.

I wouldn't buy a Mattress at Sears because they don't haggle with prices and Mattresses are very much like cars in that the prices are always flexible. But I'm not under the impression that the items I see marked "Serta" at Sears are the same ones I'm seeing at Big Lots. In general I avoid places like Big Lots because they don't have the models on a display and nowhere else sells them, so you can't try them before you buy. It's idiotic to buy a mattress because of brand name and price that you never lie on until it's paid for and in your house already. If you try it and you love it, then by all means buy it. Who am I to influence your preference?
