For both mattress and carpets the manufactures use different names at different stores. WTF? why do these consumer unfriendly modes of business continue in 2007?

Answer by sbyldy
I haven’t had much problem buying carpeting, because I shop at a locally owned store where I see the owner almost everyday around town. I do know what you mean about mattresses though. Have you noticed that they rarely have a set price and always seem to be on sale? I suspect that the manufacturers do not want people to realize that it only costs them a few dollars to make them, and they want to continue their maddening ways of business purely for profit.
