Hi,

I remember once upon a time looking at a catalog and seeing what they called
a "body pillow" which was essentially an extra long, extra fluffy pillow
you could cuddle up next to.  The idea apparently being if you can't have
a real person there to hold, it was better than nothing (I'm not a cuddler,
so I don't understand it ;-).  But I was thinking I might get one for a
friend of mine since I think she'd appreciate it.  But now I can't recall
for the life of me where I saw it advertised.  So I'm hoping some kind soul
out there will be able to give me a name and number of where I might find
one.  I'd also be interested in hearing what people who have tried them
thought of them (as long as I'm here... ;-)

This is a repost.  I guess I wasn't clear enough the first time.  I've had
lots of people point me to local stores but the person it's for is on the
other side of the country (2940 miles to be exact... ask me why I know... ;-)
so I'm looking for a pointer to a catalog or mail-order company I can call
and order one and have it shipped to my friend as a surprise.  The multiple
replies so far have suggested Strouds and Home Express but to the best of
my knowledge they don't deal in mail order.  So if anyone knows of a
mail order place I can order one, please let me know.  And beaucoup thanks
to everyone who has replied so far.

Any and all feedback, greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
