A very good point! I also like to hit the resale shops for almost new stuff. It can both interesting and very challenging. Hospital sheet are washed at both high temperatures and with plenty of chemicals too. No wonder they are so rough N tough.

When I was in the hospital, their sheets was so rough that it was difficult for me to lay on them. I had to be turned more than usual. I find that using sheets with a high thread count can be very comforting. The higher the thread count, the more costly the sheets are. I try to get a thread count of 500 to 800. Eight hundred thread count sheets are very expensive, but they are smooth as butter. Although my mattress is just a vinyl covered mattress, nothing special, the sheets I put on it, makes a world of difference. Just keep this in mind when thinking about the comfort of your bed.
