Tempurpedic Discount
Tempurpedic Discount
My wife and I are considering buying a Tempurpedic bed. It's always been my understanding that their prices are set and not negotiable. However when we were in the store and I asked the salesperson he said he could reduce the price by 15% but I would lose free delivery and I wouldn't get the whole value of the warranty. Essentially I would get only 85% of the warranty value.
Is anyone familiar with this or has done something similar?

I got 10% knocked off because I bought a floor model of a discontinued mattress, but no issues with the warranty or having them deliver it for the negotiated price. That was about 6 years ago.

The mattress industry has changed a lot. You might consider one of the Internet mattresses such as Casper. Otherwise Costco gets good reviews if you have one nearby.

Many good options for less.

You will find Tempurpedic down the list and much more expensive.

That's a great suggestion. Just checked it out but they don't sell the type of bed we need.unclescrooge wrote:All the memory foam mattress are supplied by the same company.

It needs to be adjustable and a split bed (2 long twin beds vs 1 king bed) for health reasons.unclescrooge wrote:I'm curious, what's so special about the bed?EinAustin wrote:That's a great suggestion.

Re: Tempurpedic Discount
Plenty of companies make and sell split-king adjustable memory foam mattresses. It is one of those things that are common but you wouldn't think so unless you looked for them.

Even Costco has some:

Tempur-Pedic makes good but overpriced mattresses. Even so, there are some resellers. I have seen them at Bed Bath & Beyond, for instance, and they frequently have 20%-off-anything coupons available. (For many years, they had them for the asking at the customer service desk, but I don't know if that is still true or not.) A store that sells Tempur-Pedic products but doesn't have exactly what you want might be able to order it for you.
Mattresses in general have a HUGE markup. That is why there are so many mattress stores and frequent sales. I can't imagine paying full price for one even from some of the lower-cost vendors that are internet-only because even they will have $50-100 off at times.

Re: Tempurpedic Discount
Go to your local Costco and ask about Tempurpedic Road Shows. They sell previous models for about 50% off. Probably come thru once or twice a year

Re: Tempurpedic Discount
I know this is an old thread, but wondered if anyone has ever gone to one of Costco's Tempurpedic Events and, if so, what was the format? Did they have some mattresses to view, was there a discount from the prices on their website?
We are ready to order a Tempur bed with adjustable base from Costco that is currently on their website (not one of the current sale beds but the price seems reasonable when comparing elsewhere) and delivery is cited as 4-6 weeks. However, we see on the Costco website that they are currently advertising a Tempur event at our local store coming up.
We've stayed away from in-person visits during COVID but wondered if it is worth it to visit the store during the event and/or what to expect if we did. Should we expect a special offer vs. what is currently advertised online?
Re: Tempurpedic Discount
Also note that if buy a Tempurpedic from a store, you DO NOT GET the Tempurpedic return policy. Not sure what that policy is now, but when we got ours, it was a 90 day full refund, no questions asked return policy.
If you go through the store, you get the stores return policy.
That was a deciding factor for us.
