So, research showed me that buying a true Thai mat for my business was going to be somewhat costly. Rather than drop a ton of money on just the mat, and still have to buy kneeling cushions and pillows and coverings, etc., I went to Wal-Hell. As much as I dislike shopping there, it definitely served its purpose for me on this occasion. (I'd already been to Target, JCP, and a few other places, but it was still going to cost too much to make my own.)
So instead of paying $140 for just the mat, I paid $85 total for: 1 Queen size 1.5 inch memory foam mattress topper; 4 rag rugs, 2 flat Full/Queen sheets, and 1 travel size memory foam pillow. Oh, and 2 small picture holders which are being used to display info cards when I go out marketing myself.
So how is this both ghetto AND hillbilly? Well, right now, the two flat sheets are on either side of the mat (one under and the other on top), and everything gets wrapped up inside this mat/sheet combination, then wrapped in a ... piece of rope. We're going high-class here, folks.
However, I have given two massages on this set-up so far, and both people really enjoyed the massage and were moving better afterwards. So, I guess Ghetto Hillbillies must know what they're doing, huh? (Oh, and the two flat sheets will soon be sewn together into a home-made duvet, with snaps to close it around the mattress topper.)
