Dorm Days: Quick Shopping Guide For College

Moving trucks, hot bodies, sweat, loud music, books…

OH

Hey there!!

Sorry, I was day dreaming about my first day of college when I moved to campus.  Crazy fun times y’all!  This reminds me of all the stuff I had to buy just for the smallest of cubicles we called a dorm room…which we had to share with other people.  It was still a fun time to be out and about with all the other college freshmen.

This is the time of year I enjoy so much!  Not because it’s cooler but because college starts and every home goods store has stuff on sale!!

I’m currently in a dorm room heaven right now!  You can find just about everything you need for your home or apartment at very low costs.  Just make sure the quality is up to your standards…you don’t want to pay $10 for 12 bath towels.  Something tells me those towels won’t get you dry or even hold their color through one wash!

If you’re anything like me, you’ll want to know where the sales are.  Try stores like TargetBed Bath & BeyondKMartWal-MartMacy’s, Lord & Taylor and etc…so on and so forth.  You can find these for yourself or if you’re a parent, be sure to check out things for their bedrooms, playrooms and even the family room!

Handy dandy towel sets!  Target is usually good about decent towel sets so this Room Essentials set would work great for your home.  Even if you don’t want to use them for yourself…think guest bathroom, kitchen, car, storage, rainy day or whatever your heart may desire.

$15

Why didn’t they make these things when I was a kid?!  Screw it! I’m going to buy this…don’t judge me lol just know when you visit, this will, in fact be sitting on my kitchen counter!

We all know how Rena feels about her coffee.  She needs it to survive and it needs to be sweet and strong! I did happen to have one of these teeny tiny coffee makers in my dorm room back in the day.  It did the job.  They make crazy cool colors now!!

Mixing bowls!!!  I bake.  I bake A LOT!  Bowls are used constantly.  So it doesn’t matter what they’ll be used for, they will be used.  I might want the biggest bowl of CTC ever (Cinnamon Toast Crunch)…these look like they’ll be just fine.
