before I place my order, no promo or free shipping codes anyone?

starrsville Feb 21st, 2006 07:09 PM

No - less than half price is the best tip I can offer! :-)


fishee Feb 21st, 2006 07:22 PM

thanks, I ordered the feet duvets too!

"Renovation Hardware needs to give dina a commission! "

WOW! I had NO idea this thread had gotten so big! I'm so glad that this little tidbit could be of help to so many.

The foot duvets do look heavenly don't they?! I just wish they weren't sold out of the larger ones. Poo.

Hey! NOW I know how we are going to be recognize other Fodorites on the plane. Chances are good that if they have the RH down travel pillow, excuse me, the dina down travel pillow!, they found about about it on this board!

I'll be looking during nap time on my next long flight! :-)

You are SO right starsville! I am SO going to be looking around on my flight and wondering if it's a fellow Fodor! :) Too funny!

Thanks Travelnut!

I have one question about the pillow. Isn't it rather bulky to carry around? I ordered the blow ups because they fold to almost nothing but I'm sure they are not as comfortable as the down.

You guys sold me on these too. I ordered two last week and am just waiting for them to arrive before our trip to Paris next week. I am also thinking they will be great to have because I like to read in bed and can use it on top of the usual pillow provided by the hotel.

Mine came yesterday. I had curling last night so I am waiting til I get home tonight to open the box and see! Since the shipping didn't change with $10 more in the order, I tossed in the 9.99 soaps that were $24, LOL.

You will see me using mine to and from Paris in April and into Croatia and out of Italy in September!

thatgirldina Feb 22nd, 2006 10:11 AM

julies, I'm leaving for Paris next week too! I'll be the girl in coach with the &quot;eucalyptus&quot; colored pillow! :)

MelJ Feb 22nd, 2006 12:27 PM

Finally--a practical travel pillow! Love the idea that it contains the larger down pillowcase cover--very clever.

I just ordered two. Now it's time to look at tickets to Paris--just to try these out, of course!

Thanks for the tip!

I just bought one. Aside from airline tickets, that was my first on-line purchase. I am endlessly bunching up my clothes coat and such on planes, so perhaps this will be a good thing.

Restoration Hardware is probably wondering what the heck is going on, lol!

I just ordered 4 of these. I stole the idea of shopping early for Christmas, so I bought three for gifts, and one for myself of course:)

fishee Feb 22nd, 2006 01:19 PM

If there are any left, I'll be in coach with taupe (and maybe garnet on my feet)...

Syl Feb 22nd, 2006 01:20 PM

I ordered one for my big trip in Sept. to Slovenia/Croatia &amp; 2 others for gifts for family leaving to Australia shortly. Having recently returned from Europe in the fall, the joke is that all pillows I slept on were square!! And if I don't have a window seat on the plane, my husband's shoulder will support the pillow.

Tries2PakLite Feb 23rd, 2006 02:04 PM

These are so terrific! Thank you to the original poster (thatgirldina) for the tip. I ordered a bunch as gifts and picked up one each for me and my husband. I was sold at the description, but my husband is a kick-the-tires type and he loved it too.

We are taking them to Italy in August. I like the fact that even if your pillows are square, layering the down pillowcase on top will be an improvement all it's own.

Thanks again.

Got mine today, It is really nice.

fishee Mar 2nd, 2006 08:14 PM

I like my pillow too, wish I bought more as gifts. feet duvets take up a lot of space in a suitcase but are warm. I wasn't charged shipping -- if you purchase more than $20 do you get free shipping or something? If so, I'll order a few more...
