Foam pads for beds

[BAwithkids]

Sorry for the truly mundane question... I have a hard time sleeping, and one thing that has helped has been using one of those foam "egg crate" style pads on top of the regular mattress. Are those availalbe in BA? Where would I find one if they are?

It seems ridiculous to lug one all the way to BA with me, but I may do it if there's no other choice...

Thanks.

yea you can get them at the Fabric stores or maybe Easy. I bought mine at Tihuelche in Bariloche.

What are they called again? I´ve done some searching and couldn´t seem to find any in stores near my house or in the Once neighborhood...

Jaja - especially didn´t help with the confusion when I used the word "egg pillow" to describe what I was looking for - although I do believe that the word "almohada" is in the common description!

I'd also love to know what they're called...

Well, guys, I used my trusty internet skills and googled it. The answer I came up with for Argentina was probably "colchon de mapla". It seems a guess, but here's the Yahoo (yeah I know) thread that talked about it: http://es.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20101009135527AAWXray

hopefully a local will weigh in.

I ran across this place this weekend as I have been looking for thick foam for sound proofing. It is open and close to the Malabia Subway station.
