Shoppers rush to gets hundreds off mattresses in bank holiday Simba Sleep sale
Many shoppers have reported that their sleep has 'dramatically improved' after purchasing a Simba mattress.
As we move into the summer months, a whole new range of sales from popular retailers are starting up. However, many of these are only week-long events so shoppers need to be quick to snap up their much needed products for bargain prices.
One incredible sale taking place this week is from Simba Sleep, who are renowned for their award winning mattresses. With many shoppers claiming that these mattresses have greatly improved their sleep, new customers only have until the end of the bank holiday weekend to chop hundreds of pounds off a new mattress.
Simba has cut prices across their wide range of mattresses, meaning shoppers won't need to spend a fortune for a better night's sleep. With a 4.3 star rating on TrustPilot, the retailer has cut the prices off some of their budget products, as well as some of their more expensive items.
One product in the Simba sale is the Hybrid Mattress, which usually retails for £649. However, shoppers can save over £120 as the retailer has slashed their most popular mattress down to £525.69.
This mattress, which has been sold worldwide over half a million times, is said to align with your body to help relieve pressure and it comes with a zip cover that is easily washed, reports the Mirror. Featuring 1,900 springs, the product was designed to support different zones of the user's body.
Along with a 25cm depth and "five layers of comfort", Simba states the mattress also allows "airflow, cushioning and heat dissipation", which is a perfect feature to have during the warm summer months when many people may have trouble sleeping due to the heat.
For shoppers who are looking for a more luxurious mattress, Simba has also reduced the price of the Hybrid Luxe Mattress. Normally £1,199, shoppers can now buy it for £995.17 or £24.05 per month. Boasting 5,700 springs, this mattress features a depth of 31cm and nine layers within the mattress.
Including a wool and bamboo layer, Simba has said the high-end product has "contouring designed to limit motion transfer", meaning users won't be tossed around at night when their partner moves in the bed.
Outside of the Simba Sleep sale, Amazon has slashed the price of the Vesgantti 4FT6 Double Mattress from £264.99 down to £179.99. With a 4.5 star rating, shoppers can further reduce the price of this mattress by adding a £15 voucher - dropping the price tag down to £164.99.
Instead of a sale, Emma Sleep is currently offering a range of freebies when you buy one of their popular mattresses. For example, the Hybrid Airgrid Mattress retails for £679, but shoppers will also be able to snap up free pillows, duvet and mattress protector that are usually worth £341 altogether.
Despite these fantastic offers, many shoppers are rushing to buy one of the Simba Sleep mattresses while the sale is available. Many shoppers have left reviews on the Luxe Mattress, which boasts a 4.8 star rating from over 12,500 customers.
One happy shopper said: "So happy with my purchase, mattress surpassed my expectations providing a great sleep."
With another adding: "I was sceptical at first about spending money on a new mattress as I thought what benefit would it bring! Then I stumbled across the Simba mattress online, and something about the way it was presented and the words used made me take the plunge.
"I have to say what a game changer this Hybrid mattress is. Comfortable, sturdy and right from the get-go, my sleep has dramatically improved."
However, not every shopper left a positive review about the mattress, as one person wrote: "The mattress is already sagging from 3 to 4 days after sleeping on it"
Another shopper shared having a negative experience with the mattress, adding: "I'm a side sleeper and I thought spending more money on a mattress would be better for my back. But the Simba mattress gives me back pain and I'm not getting a full night sleep."
However, other five-star reviewers reported the opposite. One customer praised: "Simba mattress is firm which has helped ease back pain I was getting from my old mattress. It has also allowed me to gain a better quality nights sleep allowing me to feel refreshed when I wake up."
A further shopper agreed, writing: "My back has never been so good . I wake up now feeling like I've had a great night sleep for the first time in years!"

Princess Charlotte 'handed back' lavish gift worth eye-watering £36k
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Princess Charlotte, third in line to the throne, was reportedly required to return an extraordinarily extravagant gift she received as a newborn. The ten year old princess was given a £36,000 item upon her birth to parents Prince William and Princess Kate in May 2015. However, due to strict Royal protocols, she was unable to retain this pricey gift. The Natural Sapphire Company presented the expensive baby rattle, crafted from 18ct white gold and adorned with diamonds, sapphires, and rubies to form a Union Jack. READ MORE - Edinburgh locals warn 'we will go to war over parking' if development goes ahead READ MORE - Edinburgh Council blasted over 'extremely concerning' £8m deal with convicted landlord On their website, the company explained their decision to splurge on Princess Charlotte's birth. They said: "When Kate and William were engaged with the iconic blue sapphire ring that once belonged to Princess Diana, our sapphire ring sales rocketed. Women everywhere wanted to be just as fashionable as Kate. Today, we continue to grow as a business and it is with great joy that we celebrate the birth of a new royal. "We're thanking Kate and William for introducing our company to the world, by gifting a custom-designed baby rattle, fit for their Princess. Baby gifts made from precious metals are a tradition dating back to the 18th century. Our luxury rattle, worth $45,000 (£36,000), is made from 18k white gold; lined with sapphires, rubies, and diamonds to produce the Union Jack flag.", reports the Mirror. "Such a unique gift, unlike any they will receive from well wishes around the world, will surely be treasured." Although Princess Charlotte was graced with an extravagant gift, it's doubtful she ever laid her hands on the posh rattle. In 2015, speculation arose that Princess Kate may have chosen not to keep the opulent trinket. Kensington Palace remained coy about whether such a lavish present made its way to William and Kate, asserting that they typically decline corporate offerings. Even without the fancy toy, Princess Charlotte wasn't left wanting. It's believed King Charles gave her a handcrafted willow rattle priced at a more modest £25, a less alarming choice for the young Royal to parade, and certainly easier on her parents. Celebrating her tenth birthday last month, the Royal family commemorated the day with a fresh portrait. Kate, using her iPhone, captured the endearing image during a Cumbria visit earlier in the year, now shared on the couple's social media to celebrate Charlotte's significant day. In the picture, Charlotte rests on a grassy knoll, taking a breather on their hike, clad in a camouflaged Jack Pyke jacket and robust backpack. Accompanying the image of the beaming princess were the words "Happy 10th Birthday Princess Charlotte!" complete with a heart emoji and photo credit to Kate.

Wife pays huge £20k fee to access her bank account after husband dies from Covid
Nicky Wake, who lost her husband in 2020, was left grieving, solo parenting and trying to run a business, all while being forced to fight the financial burden that became emotionally overwhelming When Nicky Wake lost her husband, the last thing she was thinking about was finances. But during the heartbreaking midst of grief, she faced the devastating financial burden and had to pay out £20,000. Nicky, 54, from Manchester and founder of tragically lost her husband, Andy, on April 17, 2020, due to COVID-19 while he was in care. It came just a few years after Andy suffered multiple heart attacks that led to a catastrophic brain injury. He was sadly left completely incapacitated. From 2017 to 2020, Andy was unable to walk, talk, or care for himself and required round-the-clock specialist care in a nursing home. It was during this time that he caught COVID-19 and sadly died. While under specialist care, Nicky said she was left in "limbo" as she was unable to access their joint bank account. Adding to this, Nicky and Andy were co-directors in their events and management company, but she was unable to secure full access. This meant Nicky couldn't manage the business or pay herself dividends. Andy had not appointed a legal or digital executor, prepared a will, or set up a power of attorney before his illness and death. "It was an unholy mess", Nicky shared exclusively with the Mirror. "All of our life savings were in one account. Basically, it's entirely my fault because I spend far too much on shoes, so he was the money man. He kept all of the savings in his ISA. He joked that it was for a rainy day, and that day happened in 2017. "It was pouring down and I couldn't access our savings when I needed it the most. I was solo parenting our son Finn (now 17 years old), struggling with child care, while my husband was critically ill in hospital with no prognosis of a happy ending. His consultant said to me, 'your story does not have a happy end', and at the same time, I was worried about the financial implications." While Nicky had her own current account, she relied heavily on the savings account and was left financially stranded at the worst possible time. "We used that account to buy our son school shoes and his birthday presents every year", she said. To regain control of their finances and the business, Nicky had to fork out over £20,000 in legal fees. Even after regaining control, she was obliged to account for every expenditure to the Court of Protection. The entire ordeal was emotionally shattering and a colossal burden during an already heartrending time. Nicky said: "Even though the money was jointly mine, I had to detail every penny of that in a heartbreaking report. So when I was fighting the biggest battle of my life, trying to stay alive, I was bashing needlessly. "It was the most trying and horrid of times. I understand why the Court of Protection is in place, but it drove me to despair and the worst of all scenarios. "I did CPR for 40 minutes to keep him alive, and at times the Court of Protection made me wish I hadn't, and that is a terrible and awful burden to carry." She added: "It is my fault, we should have had those grown-up conversations and we should have got a power of attorney in place, but we didn't." Nicky didn't gain full access to their business until her husband had passed away. In addition to this, Nicky was unable to access his social media accounts - a place where he had long connected with friends. She struggled to guess passwords through tears and wholeheartedly wished she could inform his friends about his condition and share regular updates with ease. Contacting customer service representatives on social media platforms was "impossible". Nicky added: "Every other day, a Facebook memory pops up with Andy, it's a beautiful yet heartbreaking reminder. "I would have loved to have created a post for the love of Andy and put that on his account, but I never got the chance to do that." Another gutwrenching blow saw Nicky lose messages sent from her beloved husband. She shared: "I lost every WhatsApp conversation I had with him, and you don't understand how heartbreaking and painful that is. Not being able to go back and look at those memories. "You need to back those up, save your WhatsApp conversations. It was something I had to experience." Nicky is now urging everyone to keep an updated will, establish a power of attorney, designate legacy contacts for all digital and social accounts, back up crucial chats like WhatsApp to the cloud, and keep a secure, accessible record of account passwords. "There are a lot of important assets we need to keep and treasure," she shared. "We need to be having those difficult conversations, but we don't talk about it enough. You don't think it's going to happen to you, but then it does." Reflecting back, she added: "It was heartbreaking, horrible, kind of limbo. I felt like I was fighting battles on every front. To have to deal with admin, lack of access, financial worries, on top of a life-changing tragedy, was beyond belief. I used to wake up and couldn't believe what had happened to our beautiful family, I still don't." Following this time, Nicky was inspired to launch a platform designed to help others like her - widows and widowers - in finding companionship, love, and hope following profound loss. Research Manager at SunLife, Jordan Flynn, shared: "If you're thinking about leaving instructions for your funeral or writing a will, it's a good time to leave clear instructions for your digital estate. Not doing so can mean loved ones are locked out of important accounts or left unsure about whether to memorialise, delete, or manage your social media accounts. "Some people may like the idea of their profiles and photos remaining online for loved ones to remember them by. But others are uncomfortable with these accounts being visible when they're no longer around to manage them." Offering advice, Jordan shared her top five tips on how to take control of your digital legacy. Digital executor "Appoint someone you trust to manage your online accounts and digital assets when you die. This can be the executor of your will or a separate person with digital know-how." List online accounts "Make a comprehensive list of all your online accounts, and make sure you include everything from social media and email to online banking, cloud storage, and entertainment services. If you have appointed a digital executor you won't need to list all your passwords, just the username or email address associated with each account." 'Legacy contact' "Most major platforms have a specific feature where you can appoint someone as your digital executor within your account profile. For example, Apple has a 'Legacy Contact', Facebook also has a Legacy Contact, and Google has Inactive Account Manager – it is something you have to opt into, so make sure you have taken the necessary steps." Document digital wishes clearly "You need to make sure there is evidence of what you want to happen to your digital legacy – there can be no grey areas. Clearly state whether you want accounts deleted, memorialised, or passed on, and who should receive sentimental content like photos or videos." Store instructions securely "You need to make sure your wishes are securely stored – ideally, include your digital instructions in your will to ensure they're legally binding. Alternatively, you can store them with your solicitor or in a secure place known to your executor." Jordan added: "Preparing for your digital legacy is no longer optional in the internet age. It's a simple step that can save your loved one's unnecessary distress - and ensures your online identity reflects your wishes, even after you're gone." "SunLife's Digital Wishes Pack ( includes everything you need to know about listing online accounts, deciding what should happen to each one, and leaving clear instructions for loved ones – download it for free today."

'I made one smart and easy switch to my dogs meals and it saved me over £200 a year'
As a devoted owner of two rescue Staffie crosses, Phoebe and Frank, their nutritional wellbeing is my number one priority. However, we recently faced a challenging decision that turned out to be one of our best yet. Our usual dog food was steadily increasing in price, and Phoebe, the fussier eater, began showing disinterest at meal times. After evaluating various different brands based on cost, nutritional content, and customer reviews, we finally made the decision to swap their diet, opting for a subscription of Forthglade's Lightly Baked Lamb Kibble, which has proven to be a godsend for various reasons. The dry food subscription offers options of 2kg, 6kg, 12kg, and 18kg bags. Although prices fluctuate depending on the flavour, the lamb variety starts at £12.59, reduced from £13.99. We choose the 12kg option as it lasts us precisely four weeks. If you have a smaller dog, the same 12kg could last considerably longer - potentially eight to 12 weeks depending on size, resulting in further savings, reports the Mirror. Each month, two 6kg bags of nutritionally balanced kibble are delivered to our doorstep with complimentary next-day delivery. I particularly appreciate the convenience of receiving two 6kg bags instead of a single 12kg bag, as it's easier to handle and helps maintain the freshness of the food. The subscription is priced at £62.99, a reduction from the usual £69.99, already providing savings as our previous food cost was £80 per month. In total, we're pocketing around £17 each month, equating to over £200 annually, and that's before considering the exclusive subscriber benefits. For instance, I secured a substantial discount on my initial order, paying less than £50 for the first with each renewal of our subscription, we've accumulated 'rewards', and currently have approximately £8 in our account that we can opt to deduct from a future order. I could choose to make one month slightly cheaper, or accumulate my credits until I have enough for a 'free' bag. Forthglade isn't the only brand offering subscription services for their food. Elsewhere, Marleybones is granting new customers 30% off their trial selection boxes, while Butternut Box is serving up 25% off the first two boxes for owners in similar subscription schemes. One aspect I particularly like about the Forthglade subscription is its flexibility. We're due to go on holiday soon and our order would have arrived whilst we were away, so we simply postponed our delivery by two weeks with a few clicks. No phone calls, no hassle, just a straightforward online adjustment. Even better, it was dispatched three hours later and arrived the following afternoon, with next day delivery included as standard. Another reason we opted to adjust our subscription was due to the fact that our orders were consistently placed on a Saturday, leading to delivery on Monday. We've since changed this, and now our deliveries arrive on Thursday, which suits us much better. It's super flexible, too, with the ability to skip, pause, or delay orders with ease. Forthglade emails reminders before dispatch, plus, there's no binding contract, allowing for cancellation at any time should it not meet your needs. But ultimately, the true test is whether Phoebe and Frank take to it, and I'm thrilled to report it's been clean bowls all round - the lamb variety has been a standout favourite after years of chicken kibble. This sentiment is shared by other pet owners on Trustpilot, where Forthglade boasts a 4.6-star rating. One reviewer praised: "The website is helpful for allowing you to make choices. Customer services are responsive and address any issues directly with you - a real person not a Bot. Food is delivered quickly, well packaged. Most importantly I don't think in the three months we have had our pup, I have wasted a single ounce of dried food as she dives on it every day.' "I have just changed my subscription with Forthglade and it was so easy to do," shared another satisfied customer. "It's so far so good as my boys are now on the Senior dog wet food. The delivery is always so prompt. Keep up the good work." However, some customers expressed a desire for more variety. One pet owner stated: "I have been getting the Salmon/Sardine multipack on subscription for a few months now and my dog loves it. Easy to change delivery days with subscription and never worry about running out. Great for my dogs allergies who can only have fish but wish the multipack had more than 2 flavours for more variety. "Subscription order came on time, notification was received of when payment was taken, my 3 little dogs are very happy that Mum didn't run out of their chew sticks," wrote another, adding, "It's one less thing to think about when doing my shopping." In the past, I used to place orders manually, but the Forthglade subscription has truly been a blessing, eliminating one task from my life admin to-do list. The next day delivery is convenient, and the perks are a real bonus. Plus, I've frequently ordered their treats and wet food from there too, so now everything arrives simultaneously. One crucial aspect for me was ensuring we weren't compromising quality for convenience - Forthglade remains a premium brand, but they simply know how to cater to their customers. It's one of the easiest, smartest switches we've made, and my only regret is not doing it sooner.
