Cooling Pillow Pads

Has anyone tried these at all?  I bought one for $10 today at the Reject Shop, slide them in your pillow case or lay them on the outside, you can put them in the fridge for 20 minutes if you want them colder.

Here is a similar looking one but more expensive, see;

Yeh, right! biggrin 

I don't have aircon so hoping I won't sweat so much in hot weather on the pillow when camping etc.

This is the one I bought, finally worked out how to use my scanner;

@ Rockylizard

 

Funny you say that :

When I was in the army we camped 6 til 8 weeks at the time in temperature's way below minus 20 at night in Germany ,It was to simple to send us you in summer time ,so it had to be always in the winter time

so I know how that feels like ( We don't want to remember them times only the fun part and they were real good )

 

Cheers John

At this stage Marj, possibly only north & south Perth suburbs and some WA country towns down south, see;

See this article from June this year that says it is likely one will open soon in Geraldton though, see;

Great invention! I used one when working night shift in summer and needing to sleep in the heat of the day. Worked really well until a whippet-who-shall-not-be-named thought one of the corners thought ir might make a good snack Hmmm....will have to have a look for them.
