I'm looking at this too...
So far, about the best I've found is the Costco deal. $99 for a full size, 2.5" thickness, 4lb weight. That's good, but not great-- they recommend the following guidelines:
2" thickness for stomach or back sleepers
3" thickness for side sleepers
4" thickness for heavier people, or people who need extra support
Pound densities:
3 lb density is considered generally substandard
4 lb density is a good compromise between price and quality
5 lb density is best, but is the priciest
... so, what I'd like is a 3" thickness with 5lb weight, but those tend to be more expensive...
