I got mine at Target. I'd suggest looking at TJ Maxx or Marshalls, but keep in mind that they're pretty hit or miss.

My sheets came from target, one during a post back-to-school sale and one I found super cheap a couple months after in the clearance section. I had a down blanket already, and I added a lighter down alternative one, both from Khol's. One of my pillow is a memory foam pillow from Sam's Club I've had for a while, and I picked up a cheap Wal Mart pillow as a base.

I've seen some good bedding at TJ Max and Marshalls at good prices. Target is awesome, especially if you can find random clearance stuff like I did. Khol's is fairly priced if you can play their pricing games. Most of their bedding is high quality, and my family buys ours from Khol's. I've always dreamed about PB bedding, but I could never bring myself to spend $50 on sheets. Sales do creep up now and then, though.

On a side note, don't worry about comforters being XL, twin will be just fine. Most college comforters are labeled twin/ twin XL anyway. Bedding companies are just trying to convince you that twin XL is huge compared to twin to get you to buy more blankets, but it's really just five inches longer (80" vs 75") and the same width (38"). I remember reading a post on Yahoo answers that had someone asking if she should buy a full or a twin comforter because she couldn't find a twin XL one. Full would be way too wide, unless you like giant blankets and want difficulties making your bed.

Through some ridiculous combination of sales, I got 2 sets of Twin XL bedding (pillowcase, flat sheet, fitted sheet) from Kohls online for a total of $18. And they were my favorite colors and comfortable. I think I also got my comforter from the Kohls website for around $30-$35.

Bed, Bath and Beyond.

Avoid RHL and American Made like the plague. Very poor quality. I ordered from them my freshman year and was ready to throw everything out by the end of the year.

If you have time, I agree that it's often easier to order online. More options and a lot of stores have the option of picking up in your college town.

I'm starting grad school in two weeks and having BBB ship my new things (Had to order new sheets as I'm switching to a different bed size) to me so that I can wash them before I go.

I was at Target last night, and they have whole aisles of bedding kits (comforter, fitted sheet, flat sheet, pillow case, pillow sham) made for Twin XL beds in really cute patterns for $50, so I bought my bedding for this year then

I got mine at rhl.org, since my school's alumni association mailed me a packet about it.

JC Penney. And the employee told me they would be getting more dorm furniture and "college kid" bedding in soon.

Walmart was just starting to put their back to school stuff out yesterday-lots of twin XL stuff. I grabbed ds a comforter for $15. Already had sheets for him that I bought on clearance last year for $2. Also bought the matteress pad last year, but can't remember what i paid, $5 maybe. For less than 425 his bed is ready.

I have bedding from JC Penney. It's served me well since freshman year, and it should be good for senior year too!
