Gift Guide, Day 14: He ain’t heavy, he’s my head
Here’s an easy gift for that friend who is always complaining about sleeping on a plane.
The Buckwheat U Pillow is actually one of those things that if you don’t mind lugging around once you land, you’ll be happy to take it home with you on the return flight.
Now there are lots of different foam versions, but we just don’t care for anything that’s not the original: Buckwheat.
You can grab them up at a lot of different places online, though we liked the offerings by TravelOasis.com.
The U pillows go for around $30 if you care about the person you’re giving the gift to, less if you don’t.
The ones on TravelOasis.com cost a touch over $28.
Gift rating: Not really that cool.
Good for: People who complain a lot or people you just don’t know what to get them.
Not good for: Friends who don’t travel or who drink too much and then ride the subway.
Value: Not a big valuable but priceless when you need to sleep but just can’t get comfortable.

Lots of travel gear options including matching sleep masks, and inflatable pillows.
Well said, the sleep masks are night and as long as the inflatable pillows are not rubber, we’re all for them. Nothing is worse than waking up stuck to your pillow.
