When you consider that you can spend up to a third of your life in a bed, I don’t think spending $1100 is really that big of a purchase. Getting a good bed is definitely worth the investment in my opinion.

Good luck - it’s a beautiful dress & should sell for more than $25!!! Especially since it’s NEW!
