Winter's coming UCK!

Well I went to the store today looking at heated mattress pads. We had one, but my wonderful husband didn't know any better, and put it in the dryer. That's not a good thing since it messes with the wiring. We have to have a king size one for our bed. I went to 3 different stores and they are about $90.00 on up. I hate winter you have to wear more clothes, use more blankets, and in general it just costs more UCK!
