When Did Mattress Sale Fundraisers Become Such a Big Thing in Ocean County?

These fundraisers are for the community, firehouses, EMTs, and townships among other things.

I'm talking about MATTRESS SALE FUNDRAISERS. There was one recently for Pinelands, Beachwood, and this weekend Berkeley Township.

When did these become so big? I've never seen a mattress fundraiser as much as I've seen them this year.

I think it's a great idea and a great way to make money. What do you think?
