An Israeli woman mistakenly threw out a mattress she said had almost $1 million inside, setting off a frantic search through tons of garbage at a number of landfill sites on Wednesday.

The woman told The Associated Press that she bought her elderly mother a new mattress as a surprise present on Monday — and threw out the old one.

The next day, she said, she remembered that she had hidden her life savings inside the old mattress. “I woke up in the morning screaming, when it hit me what happened,” said the Tel Aviv woman.

Italy’s largest mattress manufacturer, Magniflex, has created a uber luxurious mattress incorporating 22 carat gold and retailing for $24,000 with a matching pillow that retails for $1000 each.

“Each piece is thermo-regulating, anti-bacterial, odor-proof, and anti-stress, and is customized to fit the comfort levels of the consumer.

By adjusting the five-zoned memory foam construction as needed, each person can have a rich and restful sleep.
