Alcoblog   10 #25 Posted July 24, 2017 I bought a memory foam mattress a couple of years ago and it's now developed Alzheimers. It simply can't remember what shape to spring back to whatsoever. This is not a rare occurrence either … one of my girlfriend's pillows has it and a friend in Wales has just had his pillows put to sleep due to similar dementia problems (the pillows, not him).  I was planning on booking a one way ticket for my mattress to Dignitas in Switzerland, but then realised I could stand to make a pretty penny by recycling it into car washing sponges and flogging 'em on ebay … I should be able to get around five hundred out of it at a rough guess.

The sponges may be inexpensive, but you'd spend a mint on the glue! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
