Subject: Mattress FIRM Sleeps with the Fishes

Written By: LyricBoy on 10/05/18 at 12:31 pm

The huge mattress sales outlet, Mattress FIRM has thrown in the towel and is the latest retailer to go belly up, filing for bankruptcy.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/10/05/wake-up-call-traditional-mattress-chains-mattress-firm-files-bankruptcy/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.3be744004578

While the company's bankruptcy is seen by some as a "wakeup call" to the mattress industry, this may not really be so.  Mattress FIRM expanded at a ridiculous rate; in my home town they had two stores literally within eyesight of each other.  Crazy.

Now is the time to "go to the mattresses"... you'll be able to get a great deal on a mattress as the Mattress FIRM liquidates its inventory.

Mattress FIRM bought Sleepy's. So they are both in the same bed, so to speak.  :\'(

That is so stupid, It's been Sleepy's for so many years why would you go and change it to something else? ::)

Mattress stores are the most boring places on earth and they always seem shady.  I couldn't care less if it went out of business.
