Anywhere I can still find extra long sheets/mattress pad?

<p>Yes, I know I should not have waited this long…</p>

<p>Moving in on Thursday. </p>

<p>My roommate bought a red-orange bedspread on eBay (since it’s been discontinued @ IKEA). ([IKEA</a> | Bedlinen | Duvet covers | TANJA BRODYR | Duvet cover and pillow sham(s)](<a href=“Products - IKEA”>Products - IKEA)) So I’ve been endlessly searching for a solid dark teal bedspread to go with it, but never found one. So I’m still looking for a decent bedspread or duvet cover that will go with hers.</p>

<p>But now I realize that extra long twin sheets are rather hard to come by this late in the season. Preferably, I would like 300 thread count… but it looks like I might be stuck with 250. I don’t mind buying these online. Home Goods didn’t seem to have any, and we didn’t have much luck at Kohl’s, JCPenney’s, or Bed Bath & Beyond. </p>

<p>I also need an extra long twin mattress pad. </p>

<p>Any advice, anyone? :)</p>

<p>Just get a flat sheet and tuck it under your bed. & Do you really need a mattress pad?</p>

3

<p>Do a google search…there are quite a number of companies that carry them.</p>

<p>I don’t necessarily need the mattress pad right now or anything… it’s okay if I get that later anyways.</p>

<p>I’m just trying to figure out which are the more reputable companies and make sure that I don’t ridiculously overpay for shipping or anything.</p>

<p>It’s not hard to google something and figure out what is expensive and what is an okay price to pay.</p>

<p>Target has some I think.</p>

<p>Also, it’s kinda dumb you are limiting yourself to something that matches with what your roommate already bought. It’s causing you to do a ton of work for nothing. No one really expects roommates to match their things…</p>

<p>Is your university in a partnership with Barnes and Noble? The one just off campus at my school has a whole section on dorm supplies; bedding, lamps, etc.</p>

<p>I have been Googling, just looking for some personal recommendations :)</p>

<p>My roommate seems excited to decorate and whatnot, so I just want to make sure the “tone” of my bedspread doesn’t clash, so it will be easier to get curtains and stuff. I’m not having as much trouble with the bedspread search as I am just finding quality sheets.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I do believe so! I’ll keep this in mind!</p>

<p>Yes, of course there are. </p>

300 thread count and above. You can also order to pick it up in store, I think, which would also be very convenient if you had a store near your school.</p>

<p>We ordered from a place that just got back to us that they were not receiving them as soon as they thought so I canceled that order and found that Pottery Barn has a few items left in XL. Everywhere else I looked on line was sold out so I suggest PB!</p>
