    Default Help a girl out!

    Heeeeelp! :-x

    I need to start shopping for some college supplies. Only problem is, since I'm going to be in Europe for the year, I have to buy most of my things off of British websites and ship them to my dorm so that they're there when I arrive. It's really irritating. Anyway, I found everything I want at Bed, Bath & Beyond. It's my favorite store. Everything is stylish, cheap, and efficient. But I can't bring the majority of those things with me in my suitcase, and they don't even ship internationally. :whaaa:

    Is there any type of British/European equivalent, with cute and cheap sort of dorm things? Colorful and nice? I've been searching my butt off, and I can only find more upscale sort of things, and... you know, Tesco.

    Here is the BB&B website, if it helps you to find a similar store. =O

    Bed Bath & Beyond Shop For College

    Thanks a bunch of peaches!

    If I order over $100 dollars worth of items, do I get a free Rantzien shipped to me?

    Sweden does not trade in your piffling boorish foreign currency! They only accept the noble Adolphodollars!

    You'll need a futon, as it doubles for a bed and a couch, a coffee table, that is for everything, and a lamp, which is for hitting MILF on the head with, not because you need light.

    I've had more serious head injuries than you've had hot meals. It'll take more than blunt force trauma to stop me!

    xD Oh boy.

    I already have the bed there. I just need a duvet (I can pack my own sheets here), and a few organization and practical sort of items, for storage and stuff. Lots of closet organizers and good hangers. Cheap colorful dishes and cups for when I have dinner with the boy. And of course, cute shower curtains and bathroom organization thingies.

    Just thinking about organizing things and CLEANING makes me nearly cream myself - that's sadly the thing I'm most excited about in regards to having my own living space alone... *sigh* xD

    I like my food cold, so I'm afraid you've got me beat, MILF. The head injuries explain everything, really. But see, the thing with a lamp, is that you can either put a bulb in it or you don't have to. The possibilities for customization are endless.

    I'm not a weed person, but I could make one of those out of an orange if I wanted to. No need to spend money there! Frugal frugal frugal time!

    So, you're willing to spend money on fresh oranges, but not on a piece of plastic?

    Everyone say it with me now: "what?"

    Employ a vacuum, cutlery, tissues, dishes, and trash bags, both big and small. You might as well just pay a visit to the local Costco now, and bring an extra suitcase.

    Oh my goddddd, do you know how much bongs cost?! My unemployed ex-friends would use all of their mommy and daddy money to buy 100+ dollar bongs! Those things are soooo expensive. I could probably buy Florida's entire orange supply for the amount of money some people spend on bongs. xDDD

    Mmmm, oranges. Yummy. :3

    I'm not sure if I could possibly bring another suitcase. The two giant ones I want to bring are gonna be jammed between all of my stuff that I need to bring. Though I will jam in a few plastic dishes and stuff like that. I also bought those space storage bags that vacuum seal all your clothes and shrink really small! Hooray space! That's why I need to buy things online from British sites.
