Do you care about thread count of sheets? - GoFuckYourself.com

I had to sleep on a set of 200 tc sheets last night and it was like sleeping on sandpaper. My tender ears were literally chaffed from the pillowcases.

I need 600 at least.

When I first bought my 600 I was amazed. They were great. I need to get some new ones, maybe I'll try better this time. Nice and soft, feels awesome.

I've always had cheap shit. I guess if I bought some nice stuff I would notice the difference, and probably sleep better.

mmmmmmm....threadcount.

I've found that Jersey (t-shirt fabric) sheets are a nice cheap alternative, too.

Just picked up a set of 1000 tc sheets from Bed Bath & Beyond.

Nice stuff.

Every post in this thread is from a guy.

Anyway, I just found some 1000 count online for $150. Is that a good buy?

Depends on the brand and other things. I'm pretty sure that's what I paid too but then I had to add in another set of pillow cases because the sheet set only came with 2.

I love Egyptian cotton sheets - round the 600-750 tc range but I also love flannel type pillow cases too. I use 3 pillows and 1 always has the flannel cover depending on how I'm feeling.

The natural "Modal" ones are cheaper too but they feel like the primo stuff

It's so nice to see all you straight boys understand the importance of a high thread count.

Thumbs up to you all!

I sleep on 1000tc and up and you can get yourself a pair of 1000tc off various websites for $100. Check out Overstock. My fave places to buy bedding although the selection isnt that of a department store are TJ MAxx and Marshalls. It may take you a little longer but you will truly get the best deals, I got my 1000tc for $75 from there.... pretty sateen purple ones.

Seriously, check out Overstock as well as a few stores on Ebay that sell some really nice stuff. Cant remember off the top off my head but they are the biggest Ebay store for bedding.
