Where to buy a memory foam pillow - without taking out a mortgage?

My husbands physio has suggested that he get a pillow made of memory foam as he has been suffering from neck problems.

However, I am totally shocked at the prices of them - sometime even approaching £100!

I have found one offer for £25

Does anyone have any experience with these pillows or suggestions for where to get a good deal. Any help would be appreciated.

    You can get 2 for £16 at B&M ~ I find I can take or leave mine but DH swears by his.

    ive got a Tempur one, cost me £65 and its awesome

    i cant sleep without it now.

    although its a bit expensive, if i was to buy one now, i would check out ebay for generic no brand ones, theres loads of them!

    i do not like the contour ones:

    I bought a few from argos a while ago in the clearance sale. They were reduced to around £7. it may be worth checking if they're still in there.

    it took me a week to adjust to the pillow but I wouldnt do without one now- well worth any amount you pay! I can't even prop myself up with a fluffy pillow anymore because my neck gets uncomfortable. Shows that the neck has got used to being in it's correct position!! ;)

    Ikea has some for £14.99 - so you might want to have a look if there's close to where you are. Can also try it on the bed there before you buy :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above.

    In store (pound strecher) have them at £15, saw them today and thought they looked good.

    I got mine from Tesco...I think it was something like £12.
  • I bought two memory foam pillows, couldn't stand them. DH lasted 3 days, I lasted 7....
    The easiest way to describe them?, "its like lying on a bag of wet sand!".
    Hope you have better luck.
