Oh shoot, I fail at reading. We have no extra pillows on our bed. We don't even make the bed when we wake up.

I believe the extra pillows are used as a barrier. She doesn't want you to reach over and grab her in the middle of the night. We only have 3 pillows on the bed.

LOL. I did not realize this thread would such an exercise in reading comprehension. Lots of responses that missed the point, but an interesting thread nonetheless.

Bah I read it wrong before I voted... I have 3 as when I replaced one, I had an extra so I just kinda threw it on the side of the bed against the wall. I don't really use it but technically it's there. So I guess really 1 extra and 3 all together.

what's the point of decorating anything? run along.

I can understand decorating. I can't understand decorating something where you constantly have to remove and replace the aforementioned decorations. When you decorate a living room, you don't take the curtains down every day.

I use 1 pillow. My wife sleeps with a minimum or 3, but usually 4.

There are 6 total on the bed.

Ditto for us.

Why are women so obsessed with pillows on the bed?

Here's one big SCHWING for sun dresses! :thumbsup:

As much as I like "foo-foo" home accessories, We only have four pillows on the bed... we use all of them. i.e. we each get two to use at night.
I don't see a point in them really.
That reminds me of the movie "Along Came Polly". ;)

Now, on our couch, it is a different story.

2, but i only use 1 at a time. It's nice to have a spare though, nothing beats a cool pillow on a hot summer night.

Reminds me of the Heavenly Beds at Westin hotels. There was like 8 pillows on the Double size bed in my room. Nevertheless, those beds were definitely heavenly... never slept better

5 total... all used for sleeping. I use 2 and my wife uses 3... though she normally will steal one (maybe both) of mine through the course of the night.
I don't get it

2 pillows we sleep on.
2 pillows that match the comforter and go over the top of the pillows we sleep on.

So just 2 extras.

Crap, I fail at reading. I thought it was 'how many pillows do you sleep with' :(

EDIT: Bah, I wasted post 1000 on this.
