My old mattress is starting to show it's age (had it since start of college and have graduated 7 years ago) and started looking around to buying a new one. Only problem is there seems to be 5,000+ different types and little info on the net about them.

One type I had my eye on was Simmons Caresse Ultra memory foam ones. I know chances are that no one has this particular model...but does anyone own one of the vicso foam mattress types and could provide some info on them?

This would also be my first time shopping for a mattress....went to a store the other day and felt like the guy was a used car salesman. I take it that price is not firm with bedding. Any guide on how much I can get shaved off by haggling.

Also any other bedding info would be much appreciated, thanks.

They're all the same - each store gives each model their own names so that you can't compare...;)

Costco.

What i'd do is wait till one of the big ones around me to have a sale, like no sales tax, 0apr for 3 years, free 600 thread count sheet set and go in, have them pm to costco, then get it from them since they also deliver free.
