Retailers dropping My Pillow like a hot potato

Crappiest pillows I’ve ever had. They were fine for about a week and then they went flat. That coupled with most people boycotting them because of his crazy ass and it isn’t a surprise that people aren’t buying them.

Ive actually heard that from a lot of people.

Like Kaepernick?

I think that is a bad choice. If he wasn’t a average level QB he would be hired again. He brings too much baggage as a backup. Also, they give him a chance and he decide to not show up. He wants top tier pay and recognition... not going to happen, plus he walked away with like 30 million.

I’m not sure what point you are trying to make here. His status isn’t because he is liberal as massive numbers in football are liberal, so what about them?

Tell that to the cake bakers

They won the case.

Some people on here really don’t know how to compare

I don’t know. It certainly is strange how he was thrust into the spotlight. But I do know that I’m going to purchase 2 “my pillows” simply because they are trying to cancel him because of his affiliation with Trump. It is freedom for the businesses to do what they wish (I think they should all have that right just as with the gay cake debate) but it is my freedom and other citizen’s freedom to choose to send extra business his way as a result. And that is exactly what I plan to do. Vote with your dollars. It seems to be the only thing folks listen to these days.

It really is the best night's sleep in the whole wide world.

I have the My Pillow mattress topper too.

Agree 100%. Bought four MyPillows about five years ago. Gifted two, kept two. Everyone still delighted. Launder every 3-4 mos., and they're like new again. Every couple of days, need fluffed and back to new again. Five years in, still fall asleep immediately and wake without sore shoulders / neck.

Didn't know about latest boycott via Big Box places (which I never shop, anyway) until this thread. Just like never having tried Chick-fil-A until the lefties lambasted the chain, once I tried the chicken, fell in love and still think it is the best darn chicken sammy of all chains.

Just purchased four new MyPillows. Will gift two, keep two, here. Heck, now the dog can use the old-but-still-new MyPillows, but thinking two will move to den for Saturday afternoon naps.

Big business owners should not be badmouthing politicians or supporting a single candidate, neither should movie stars. It will effect their pocketbook. I would just donate to whom I wanted to see in and keep my mouth shut, most businesses do that and most donate to both parties, often giving more to one than another. The opposing party that got less will not badmouth a person who donates something to them, and will work to try to get more of that donors money to their own party. It is a big con game, you have to know how to play the game, My Pillow screwed up badly and will suffer because of it.

But i can link to Trump supporters laying siege on the Capitol and calling for heads and violence.

How long was that siege? How many people did they shoot? Wasn't about 600 people fined 50 bucks each for storming the Capital in 2018...lol

All good then?

(It's your cue to scream, "Purge" and attack anyone who doesn't think like you)

I just think some people need to keep their political beliefs separate from their business.

Some people? So you have different rules for different people?

It doesnt matter what I think or you think. All people need to be treated fair and consistent.

That is exactly what I was trying to convey.

Trump owns a bunch of hotels and buys a # ton of pillows?

Do his hotels use my pillow? I think not.

Many people that are older think that way, politics was rarely brought up in conversations years ago, people were smarter, they avoided talking about things that drove them apart so we talked about cars, Movies, and people of the opposite sex all the time. Now they are forcing us to discuss things that tear us apart as a society, how stupid is that.

I am a yooper and we got both packer backers here and lions fans, sure there is some arguing going on about that, but nobody used to fight over it before, now there is physical fights between fans. It is just a game, We are nothing but customers to those football leagues, we make them money, I am not into putting any player or actor on a pedestal. I am more interested in the direction of a political party than a candidate, they are all deceivers, which deceiver promises to support in your beliefs is why you vote, most of their promises are lies and they never get them accomplished, they knew that when they made the campaign promises.

Agree 100%...

Business should not be in politics, entertainment should not be in politics, religion should not be in politics...

Peace

They learnt well and are coming thru the front door now.
here's what you've got coming from the expanded squad,

We do not expect Joe Biden to fix it. We expect him to stand aside and allow us to fix it. Biden owes his victory and his administration to us. And we will not let him forget it.

It’s our party now
(the Dems can cry if they want to)

During the election cycle, we pushed Biden as far as possible. In his $2 trillion “Build Back Better Plan” we won some important commitments: 100% clean energy by 2035, big investment in frontline communities, and the creation of 10 million or more new jobs.

We backed Biden’s plan for the sake of defeating Trump. But it’s time for his Green New Deal Jr. to grow up. Some key pieces are missing: end fracking and just transition for fossil fuel workers and communities.

Read the room Pelosi and Perez, Feinstein and Schumer. People do not want status quo centrism. You nearly cost us the election but we won it back, and we will never listen to you again. You’ve proven you are out of touch with modern politics and it’s time to pass the torch to the next generation of the party.

And we are going big and bold and progressive.

AOC in 2024 - unless the real power is in the speaker....

Well i dont shop at either company, so to hell with them. I have been getting told that theze are really great pillows. Does anyone have experience with these pilows? Are they extra comfy?? I usually buy a full replacement set of tempurpedic pillows for the family every two years. They stay extra comfy and cool but are much better the first year. Is a year too long for new pillows?? Should i go 6 months??

A person could tell you they are the best, and the next person could say they are the worst.
Pillows are very personal.

The MyPillow guy is saying they are cancelling him. Isn't this freedom? The freedom of companies to choose what they want to sell?

Cancel culture... Got to love it. Is that what freedom looks like to you? Man I hope I can get a few liberals to work for me so I can just exercise my freedoms and fire them for being liberal...

Cancel culture is pretending that the election was fraudulent because it didn't give the result you wanted. Seems to be affecting plenty of people at the moment.

My buddy and I still talk about Pasties, and fishing in the UP. I think everyone should visit up there. I guess when everyone is snowed in it Brings people together.

I miss those Pasties though!

I've never heard of anyone having that issue with his pillows.

It's the whole reason he designed them the way he did.

BS...

Keep applauding the purge though...

I think like anything it depends on what you like in a pillow.

We bought two because we got a good deal on them and needed new pillows. As a side sleeper, I need head/neck support, so I really like mine because it doesn't compress down to a flat pancake and only needs periodic turning/refluffing. Additionally, whatever they stuff it with tends to conform easily to a bit of shaping, so I can shape it around some while it still maintains its height under my head and neck.

It also launders and dries well. You don't get the clumping like you do with standard pillows, and it doesn't take much working to get the stuffing inside to redistribute out.

My husband doesn't like fluffier pillows. He likes them flat, so he never liked his very much.
