Need 2 single beds for Friday night

[Liszt]

As in the title. Have kids coming to stay and the bunk bed we'd aquired is no good with the ceiling at just over 7'. Need to get 2 single beds of reasonable quality for Friday night. Any one recommend anywhere or online?

Cheers

The bunk bed could be converted through the use of a saw, or isn't that practical?

Argos?

Last time I had to do similar I went into a local "dodgy" furniture place. The sort of place that also does rugs and stuff. I picked up a steel frame flat pack single bed for less than £50. But you need a matress as well.

Or if this doesn't need to be permanent pick up some camp beds ~25 from Argos. Warmer than airbeds, but not ideal for sheets etc so they'd need sleeping bags.

Thanks for the replys.

This will be the first time they are staying at my girlfriends so need to make a good impression on them. Rather not do camp beds. Bunk bed was offered on a long loan so cutting it up is not really an option. I did think about it though!

Sprinter1050 does very good beds. Which is nice if you're in his delivery range

There was a link here a month or two ago for some place offering 'mattresses next day'.

You are possibly after new beds but I currently have two single beds for sale. Ikea ones that are surplus as we are putting a double bed in the spare room. Was planning to put them on eBay but you may save me the hassle!

Why not go for two cheap wooden beds from a local charity, and two new matresses. We did this a couple of years ago in a rented house, the bed was about £10, and the mattress about £30.

We took them away there and then. No hygiene issues with a wooden bed, (well, nothing a wipe down wouldn't clean up.)

Can you not just use the bunk beds as single beds? they should come as seperate otherwise you wouldn't fit them through any doors.

Now I appreciate this may be a radical idea, but last time I wanted a bed, I went to a bed shop. And bought one. I took it home and - here's the good bit - then I had a bed. Who'd have thought it ?!

fk me, that's way outside the box!

Funnily enough going to a shop was the first idea I had, but the shops near here didn't have what I wanted to take away and delivery was going to be "within 5 days".

Thanks for responses, have hopefully sorted some now.

Cheers.
