Just bought two memory foam pillows for under £20. The BP petrol stations are selling them. I have not seen them cheaper anywhere, there around £20-30 each in the shops. Tried one last night. Wow......so comfy. Going to get some more. Aircon

Bored out of my tiny brain I paced around the shop a few times before coming across these pillows. They're brilliant. They had a sample in the shop. I poked. I prodded. I'm sure I must have been on the security camera because I was there doing what I was doing for about 5 mins. One of the staff ( a fine looking lass) approached and asked if I needed any help. I said no thanks, I'm quite happy poking your pillows... Well, maybe I didn't, but the thought did cross my mind. That is, I thought about saying it... Oh, you know what I mean... Paul.
