looking for old mattress pads
looking for old mattress pads
If anybody has any old king- or queen-size mattress pads they want to get rid of, we can take them off your hands!! Leaky Boy has decided to sleep on my chest, and it's easiest to use a mattress pad as the top blanket. He doesn't leak much when he's well, and they're easier to wash. Thanks!

Hey Critters,
Have you visited the Salvation Army (de Arme`)? They have tons of linens at low prices.

Or try Freecycle. I got a nice bunch of used towels from someone (two bags full.)

Dianne--Salvation Army is the best "thrift store" we have! Plenty of stuff, and decent prices.
Bobbie--Sadly, I've never had any luck with Freecycle for wants.
Thanks for the suggestions!

Have you thought of contacting a busy motel/hotel in your area? This is an item that is discarded on a regular basis. Make friends with the head housekeeper! You are such a good mom!

Re: looking for old mattress pads
When Andy was a baby, I put the flannel covered pee pads ON TOP of his sheets. No, not the doggie pee pads, the baby ones Just tucked them in over the sheet, and cut the 5 storey run to the laundry in the basement to a minimum. Didn't have to wash the entire bedding each morning. Got the thinking cap on this morning, and I too am on my way out to thrift. Found Carnegie Hall collections of Beethoven for $2.00! Of course, I had to drop $58 on a record player at Big lots, but they have Bach as well! Goin back for my Bach.
I'll take a looksee and sees what I spies

Re: looking for old mattress pads
I raided a series of "thrift stores" today and only saw 1 MP--twin. Of course I came away with crap I didn't REALLY need!!
Ooooo, EXCELLENT idea, Christine!! Never thought of that one!

No idea where you are exactly in VA, but you might as well try craig's list, esp. if you're willing to pay a little for the mattress pads.
