<p>Our Linens N Things has a Memorial Day coupon for 20% off your entire purchase. It was in the Sunday ads.</p>
<p>Linens N Things filed for bankrupcy a few weeks ago. They should be having some incredible sales, I would think.</p>
<p>Anyone every buy the college dorm linens from here?

Was thinking of having a value pack delivered straight to dorm. What do other CCers think?</p>
<p>Looks interesting (and reasonable)…just curious about quality of linens (stiffness??) but with guarantee, looks good…</p>
<p>According to their FAQ’s, though, they only ship home, NJ_mother…</p>
<p>Thanks Rodney. Washing with fabric softener can do wonders. Maybe better if they come home for a wash first, eh?</p>
<p>Yup, that’s actually what the website suggests…I just forwarded it to my D (the picky one)…</p>
<p>Your D and my D must know each other somehow.
Picky, for certain.</p>
<p>We just ordered one of the value packs. D was so excited she offered to pay for half of it. Do wonder what a bedside buddy is. Anyone know?</p>
<p>I think it’s something that you can put under your mattress with the pockets hanging out down the side to put stuff in.</p>
<p>NJ_mother: I’m impressed; not so picky afterall!! My D is too busy with prom to even check her e-mail…Yes, the bedside buddy is exactly as bmom described; it’s actually pictured on the website…</p>
<p>NJ: PM me when you get it; curious if it’s “too good to be true…”</p>
<p>Will do.
Guess they had the colors and patterns she’s picky about! 
Oh she’s going to love the bedside buddy.</p>
<p>Hi
does anyone know how to filter the unwanted computer gibberish that is entangled in the links to shopping, bedding, checklist threads? Whenever I click on a link to any of these potentially useful threads, they are surrounded with stuff that mekes them difficult to read. There is useful text in there, but there is 5 times that amount in gibberish.
Thanks!</p>
<p>Bed Bath and Beyond should have their college stuff in stores by June 16.</p>
<p>I just got a mailing from the college providing a brochure and so on for campusbedding.com. Any experience with them?</p>
<p>I haven’t seen any information about campusbedding.com or received anything in the mail yet. What college did you receive the information from?</p>
<p>Dartmouth sent it.</p>
<p>We got it from UMN too. Seems pricey and boring. Please, anyone have thoughts on them? Maybe we should start a list of links to good current sources for this stuff and just keep cutting and pasting?</p>
<p>^^Yes, I would love this. I was beginning to think everyone’s dorm room will look pretty much the same. Are there other places to shop that have good options for extra-long twin beds? And are all college beds xtra long twins, btw?</p>
<p>We’re discussing the same thing on “Companions for the Vigil,” so here’s what I posted there a few minutes ago.</p>
<p>"I think that most college beds are XL twins these days, although there are a few exceptions. There are XL sheets/comforters/mattress covers at JCPenney, Macy’s, BedBath&Beyond, LinensNThings and lots more places. When checking out the online sites, when you get to bedding, do a search for XL or XL sheets.</p>
<p>I found beautiful sheets on deep discount at Macy’s for my D 3 years ago. I almost never shop at Macy’s – too expensive for me – but these sheets were a great deal.</p>
<p>Got the XLs for my S from JCPenney online a couple of weeks ago - solids, stripes and prints to choose from. They are on sale now and will be for a bit longer."</p>
<p>ALL college beds aren’t XL. I know that mine are normal twin sized.</p>
