Couple paid to love memory foam
Published: 15 May 2009
Although most people may do it for free, one very lucky couple is being paid over £15 an hour to enjoy memory foam, with the pair lying on bedding for a shop willing to pay them to recline on their most popular bed.
One lucky couple is weathering the credit crunch by getting a great wage for a remarkably easy job: laying down and enjoying memory foam.For 24 hours over four shifts, Sylvia Olechowski and Kostas Stoilas are being paid $25 (£16.40) an hour by BoConcept furniture store to recline in bed all day and get through as many magazines and cups of coffee they want, the St Petersburg Times reported.
The shop in the Floridian city of Tampa wants the couple to model a memory foam mattress and associated bedding to show the wonders of the material.
Responding to a Craiglist advert by BoConcept, the pair hope to improve sales at the WestShore Plaza mall location by persuading their fellow citizens to get the most money possible.
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are one couple who are not on the same level when it comes to their bed, however, with the Hollywood partners regularly arguing over the need to make their bed every day.
