Buy the right one next time.  I replace mine every couple months, I can't stand a flat or deformed pillow.

I finally broke down and got one of those gel memory foam pillows, best investment ever. Also solved my neck ache problems in the morning.
I can't stand how some are like either too poof'd or too flat.

Poor you though, silly man with a silly poofy pillow.  :))

How poofy are we talking here? I like some poof, maybe not as much as you're on about though...

I'm think I might finally learn to use this sewing machine this year, and give my pillow, poof-surgery.

I was sure your new pillow was going to be an ergodox.

I like thin flat pillows.

About once a year I buy a really cheap polyester-filled pillow, run it in the clothes drier, hot, for 10-20 minutes, then put it on the floor under a heavy box for about an hour.

I, too, like flat pillows. I actually found this one at kmart that has a solid foam center with fill around it. It has been about a year, and I still have that firm, uniform center (unlike ones in the past that just got lumpy). Funny how the cheapest pillow I've ever purchased has been the best.

I think you mean  Dust-Mite Poo..   if it were bed bugs, i'm pretty sure -Rm-RF- would've switched it out.

All pillows eventually become a poofilled pillow.

Not completely true..

The Dust mite infestation does not occur in  Dryer climates.. (http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion/th_113_.gif)

They require Humid Hot

I was sure your new pillow was going to be an ergodox.
If you have never seen someone with a "waffle-grate" pattern in his face ... you have never been to a LAN party.

Is it odd that when I go to hotels I take pictures of the tag of the pillow and use the notepad they provide to take notes on it so I can order the right one for home next time?

 :p

I used to work in a fancy hotel, we had a pillow boutique. You could ask for many different kinds of pillows and you could buy the one you liked the most from the hotel ( a new one of course)
