So my parents just bought a new mattress and box spring and they gave it to me for my daughter. They bought another set too. This one was slept on about 2 days. My mom kept telling me that it was a Full size set. I bought a pillow top pad ($50) and sheets and everything as we have no full size beds here.
We could not get any of them to fit- the bed is a Queen!
Well that would put a damper on things huh? Was there really no tag on the stuff? I have had that issue before and most times it would happen when you crash at a friends house and the friend swears its one size but its not.
Oh yes there was a tag on the mattress, but we didn't look at it. It was at my moms place for about 6 months and she swore she bought a full size. My daughter is happy as anything to have the queen size. We made all the changes yesterday. The pillow top was $20 more and the sheets were $10 more.
That happens often. I now take the exact measurements with a tape measure and list them down so I get it right the first time. Experience is a great teacher, really!
Many people have this issue and I know we are not the only ones. The oddest thing though, an Aunt of mine has a kind of like daybed but it looks to be a queen or full and we can not measure it for the life of us. Any suggestions?
I'm so crazy
