Hosting overnight guests: pillows
We have a guest room with a new queen mattress. We're on a bit of a budget since we are now living in a bigger place, have a baby, etc. We spent a lot of money on the mattress and bought a couple of extra pillows. But pillows are kind of pricey. Husband has one pillow and I have two. Then we have two guest pillows. We are now hosting my inlaws and they are complaining about the pillows... They said we should have provided two each. I had no idea and I'm embarrassed. I gave them my extra pillow since they are the guests, but that's still only three pillows on the guest bed. Did I mess up? They have never stayed overnight at our place before. Our last apartment was smaller and we only hosted friends on an air mattress...

It’s rude of them but if you want to get more for next time…they are really cheap at Walmart. Get them that and they can bring their own if that’s not good enough.
