Our pillows are stuffed with brand new PolyFil. A pound of Polyfil keeps 45 plastic water bottles from going into landfills. We used 136.50 pounds last year thus repurposing 6143 bottles. The manufacturer, Fairfield World just announced a an opportunity to win stuffing. I created an instagram page and posted a photo but we need to tag three friends in the instagram post. If you are willing, send me your instagram name.
