But here's some knowledge that will ensure you never have to go through that fitted sheet guesswork again. All you have to do is locate the tag inside your sheet. That corner will always go on the bottom right corner of your mattress. So just remember: Tag. Bottom right.

But, wait, there's more: If you want to make your fitted sheet dealings even easier, then instead of moving to the nearest corner, tuck the corner diagonal to the tag corner first. If your sheet is a little snug, this will make it a bit easier to get the final two corners on.

Boom. Done.
