I wanna buy a double bed....

I will need a bed when I get my own place, my Dad has a really old single bed that he said he'd lend me but I really want a double!! Does anyone know where I can get a double bed (incl. mattress) as cheap as possible? :D

    I bought my first bed through Argos, and to be honest I had no problems with them at all. They have a wide range of doubles, with (IIRC) mix-and-match mattresses, so you can choose the most suitable mattress that suits your budget. You may have to put it together yourself, but that's part of the fun ;-)

    Seriously though, it was an ideal budget choice and hassle-free (well, for me - other horror Argos stories may put you off)

    I'll second that - their beds are really comfortable and also a little larger than the normal double bed at 140 x 200.

    The bedding is also pretty good value!
