Mattress Turning by Number
When you buy a new mattress, the sales person tells you to 'turn' the mattress to keep it even and balanced (for example if it is a queen for two people). We are a family of five and I was always forgetting which way I had turned it the previous month, until I came up with this idea. In the top right hand corner I wrote in a permanent marker pen a big number 1, then I flipped the mattress over and in that top right hand corner I wrote a 2, then I turned it upside down and wrote a 3, then I flipped it again and wrote a 4. In every top right hand corner you should have a number and you will always know what side you are up to and what tail end. It also makes it easier to know which bed to vacuum on a monthly basis and whose mattress and pillow protectors to wash on a monthly basis.

Editor's note: This works, we have always turned all the mattresses regularly. But it doesn't work on pillow top mattresses which are not meant to be turned. Cath
