<p>I know that each year that ends, both of my college kids end up coming home with 1/2 of what went up with them!! They’ve said their stuff was in storage…haha…but, when Sept comes around again, we end up having to re-buy what I thought was stored!! After their soph year…I refused to buy anything else!! except linens…and even that annoyed me! We lost tv’s, micro’s…ugh…but now, my husband will go to one school…I’ll go to the other…what won’t fit into the kids and our cars coming home…is going to be written off! Its not worth the hassle anymore. But…we aren’t purchasing the same stuff for them now that they are graduates! If they’ve managed to care for their belongings…good for them…if not…oh well:)</p>
