1. Rotate your mattress. Before you put on a new set of sheets, if you have not done so recently, take an extra minute to rotate the mattress. Rotating your mattress in every few months will help it to wear more equally and expand its life (and comfort).
2. To donate, pack an old sheet and a bag of towels. If you have purchased new sheets or towels during the white sale of January, make some places by giving an old set or two to go. Homeless shelters and some churches will be accepted by bed and towels in good conditions, and animal shelters often require towels. In fact wearing linen can be cut and used as rags or a cloth can be dropped into recycling bin.
