Mattress Shpping.

[Flounder]

Hey guys.

I am 20 years old and in college, and it's about time I get rid of the twin bed I have had for as long as I can remember.

Largely because as a big guy, I need a big bed, my old mattress is dying, and instead of spending $350 on another twin, I might as well spend the extra $100 and get the full. Plus, ladies don't dig the twin.

Never done this, before, just curious how you all would go about it? Do I just go and lay on them until I find one I like, then shop around and buy it? Or is there something specific I should be looking for? Can you generally wheel and deal for the box spring and frame?

I know I want to get a Sealy or something in a reputable brand, I feel like buying a generic mattress is just bad business.

Any thoughts and input is welcome.
