Mattresses are worse than cars.

We're looking for a new mattress. It's worst than buying a car. At least with cars, a Ford Thumper is a Ford Thumper at all the dealerships. With mattresses, changing the outside fabric changes a Simmons ComforPedic Atlas into a Simmons Comforpedic Blue Sky... and every dealer offers a price match guarantee which cannot be claimed because only their store chain gets the Blue Sky -- there's a custom model for every single chain.

Argh. Oh, and I think Sleepy's is in violation of the Massachusetts law about sales -- there's always a sale, every single week, and never a regular price.
