Very Cold Morning!

An electric mattress pad! What a phenomenal idea!!!

The older I get, the more I dread the cold sheets in the winter. My little heating pad does great, but only heats a teeny patch. Looks like I'll be heading over to Amazon and searching out a new mattress pad. Thanks!!!

I always order mine from JC Penney. The Christmas Tree Shop price sounds phenomenal.

By the way, Pepper, I pre heat the bed an hour or more ahead of time. This also allows me to keep the heat lower at night, warm bed, cool air; great for sleeping.

The Christmas Tree Shop price IS phenomenal! I couldn't find one for less that $79 when I checked. I guess that purchase will wait a while ...

You might want to check Walmart for the electric mattress pad. That's where I got mine a few years ago.

Nothing like flannel sheets. They warm up fast and keep you toasty all night and morning!

hilltopper · 01-25-2010, 12:36 PM

I'm with BroadHopper. They really don't require any warmup at all!

I usually find find my two labs laying on the bed warming it when I go to bed.

Yup, flannel sheets and a Pointer. Keeps that electric bill low as well.
