National Mattress and Bedding Store Closes in Great Falls

It wasn't until yesterday (April 13) when a call from my wife on her way home from work brought the news that the Sleep Number store in Great Falls, Montana had closed.  The store, located at the popular southwest corner of 10 Avenue South and 9th Street, had been open just over a decade.

It was around that time in 2015 that we purchased our bed from the company, and while I don't remember the exact price, it was probably more than the first 3 cars I owned.  Total.  Yeah, these aren't an impulse buy, but they are an investment in your health!

Sleep Number Clears Out Location in Great Falls, No Notice to Customers

In making that investment, it was extremely disappointing on the consumer level to not be given a notice by Sleep Number that our location would be shut down.  Maybe I missed mine in the mail with all the other fliers?

For now, there are only 3 locations in Montana that offer Sleep Number brick and mortar stores including Billings, Bozeman and Missoula.  And while sure, I can still order online, it was convenient to hit the store in the Electric City to get sheets, pillows or service on my mattress.
