<p>I was wondering, has anyone gotten all their dorm room shopping done? I did this past weekend. I still need to pick up a few odds and ends… but i still have 2 weeks.</p>

<p>I will say i saved the most shopping at walmart. I got some curtian shears(sp) that were originally $5.00 for $1.00 each! One of the employs was putting them out and mentioned that they would match the bed set i got. :D</p>

<p>Another save was that i was going to get an external hardrive for my laptop (just in case), and one walmart (we have three within a five mile radius of my house) had it marked for $80 and i got it for $60 at the other one!</p>

<p>Made sure D had the above-when all the kids got sick and the local CVS drug stores were stripped bare, nothing to be found, she was glad to have her own. So have your own supplies for illness.</p>

<p>“the local … stores were stripped bare”</p>

<p>Funny you should mention that. We found that LCD TVs were sold out at all the discount stores near daughters campus’. Long sheets too. Too many parents thinking “Oh we can get them when we do move in” I guess.</p>
