Bed Linens

A few years ago, I purchased bed sheets and pillow cases from Bed, Bath and Beyond http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/ for my queen size bed. Even with a 20% off coupon, I paid close to $100.  I was not very pleased with the endurance of this merchandise.   A couple of years into the purchase, the elastic on one of the corners on the fitted sheet broke.  I made do.  It did not impair the functioning of the sheets.

A few nights ago, the flat sheet ripped near the seam at the top.  What the!

So, this time I purchased linens at Wal-Mart http://www.walmart.com. I normally buy the low priced option, but I decided to splurge this time, and go for the 400 thread count option.  These sheets and pillow cases are 100% Egyptian cotton but they feel like satin. It is amazing to me.

It will be interesting to me to see how long these linens endure.
