    I use the Walmart inflatable travel pillow at $4.88 last time I checked. Fleece cover which can be easily removed and laundered. Inflate about 1/2 way. On my back I don't need much pillow, on my side I need a bit more. Deflated it takes up a minimal space in the pack.

    I've used the Graham flexair pillows in the past. They work pretty good. I found them here for .25 each. Might be worthy of a group buy if anyone was interested in taking that on. http://www.allmed.net/catalog/item/1...3220,1624,1610

    But for now I'm also using the AHE snoring cub. I've used it for years and it still is as fluffed as it was when I got it.

    +1 on the wally world pillow. Bought one and used it last night. I liked it a lot. Much better than using my "arm" pillow =P

    I bought the Snoring Cub from AHE and found it too small for my liking. However, the Snoring Bear, just a little larger, was JUST RIGHT. It also clips to the ridgeline.
    I've used it now for about 3 years.

    I picked up a BPL inflatable pillow from a PIF. It weights about 0.6 oz and works OK by it self. I made a pillow case for it out of scrap poncho-liner material and it's super comfortable! Total weight is under 2 oz with the pillow case.

    I use a cacoon air core

    It is super comfortable. The top is a silky nylon and the bottom is some polyester material, so it doesn't slid oparound under you. Plus it only weights 4 oz

    I picked up a throw pillow at my local fabric store in the same size and made a ripstop pillow case for it. Works wonders and if I decide that I want a different filler in the pillow itself, the shell has a zipper on one end so I can take the polyester filling out if I want.

    +2 on the Wally World travel Pillow. I've even got the zebra print cover for it. What I like about it is that it is small enough that I can stuff it in with my zippered under/over quilt... (Note that I am no longer referring to the sleeping bag as such.)

    The place that sells these on eBay is close to my house so I stopped in and picked up some for me and the kids. At $3.99 for me it was a great deal, but at $8.99 with shipping there may be better options. It is a very comfortable pillow, but not as super-collapsible as some.

    +1 for this pillow. More than enough support. Some complain about the fabric being slick though.
