I really stuck to the VT list and didn't throw too many other things in the cart. Maybe NH prices (you know that "Live Free-ha,ha,ha or Die" State) are higher. The biggest purchase at Bed, Bath was the Bed in a Bag thing with sheets, comforter at $129.99. Foam/eggcrate mattress pad was $45.00, and
the other mattress pad thing was $40.00. I spent more on the eggcrate thing because several people told me the ones you can get for 10.00 start falling apart very quickly and the kids have foam all over sheets and room. Two sets of towels came to about $50.00. I did kind of splurge on these because son liked the way they felt. Fleece blanket was $10.00, clip on fan was $14.99 and I bought a multi-hook over the door hook thing for $5.00. Total bill here was $294.
Wal-mart-Biggest purchase was the surge protector for $20.00. Bought all the shampoo, razor blades (why are these things so expensive), cough medicine, Advil, Tylenol, laundry deterg. desk supplies, laptop stand for $15.00, mug, plate, bowl, couple plastice cups, some silverware (3 spoons, forks, knife), a paring knife, tissues, paper towels, trash bags, Zip-loc bags. I am telling you this stuff adds up. I guess I could have put it all together from home stuff, but then I would have needed to replace what I have. Daughter did buy a few things and I did some groceries, so son's stuff probably came to $250.00. I have saved all receipts so can return anything not needed.
