I haven't tried this myself yet, but I recently saw a post in which a gentleman described how he taped a small/cheap vacuum bag (the kind with the vacuum cleaner valve) inside a mattress bag that he purchased to fit his mattress. He cut a hole in the mattress bag for the valve to poke through, put his mattress in the bag contraption, taped the mattress bag shut (making sure that the holes that he cut for the valve are tightly sealed), sucked the air out of the entire package using the valve. His 12" memory foam mattress looked like it was reduced to about 2 or 3 inches thick. He then rolled the entire deflated mattress up & tapped up the roll to keep it from unrolling. A few people commented that this solutionw worked for them as well. Just search on "memory foam mattress vacuum bag" and you'll see the post with pictures.

How does a self inflating camp mattress inflate itself?

The self-inflating ones are inflated by opening a valve which leads to an air bag that has a piece of foam inside it. With the open valve, the foam is able to suck air into itself so it can go back to its normal size. Air is also sucked into the other areas of the air bag. When the valve is close and you lay on the mattress, the air tries to escape the foam but it can't. This makes it just like an air mattress or sleeping on foam. To deflate it you open the valve and start rolling it up from the other end. This squashes the foam and all the air can escape through the open valve.
