That list includes

A dining room table
A futon
A reading chair

But not

Condoms
a laptop
a stapler
underwear

It's like they've never been in a college dorm room.

Ridiculous list. But condoms are there - under medical.

Check out this website www.Amazon.com. They have a pretty wide selection and will deliver for free if you spend over $25. Also most large cities have public transportation to shopping areas.


Please don't ruin this nice thread with your snarkiness. Not all dorms will accept packages from Amazon, as has already been mentioned in this thread.

Lol imagining kid on public bus with area rug, mattress topper, plunger, and stick vacuum


Why would that be LOL? Kids should know how to use public transportation.

Aaah, I read it on my phone and missed that there were more categories. Glad to see that underwear is there too.

Laughing about the dining room table!

I guess you are not familiar with what delivery means? We ordered a fridge after arriving to save room in the car. OK..if your school does not allow packages but I have never heard of that so I assume it is not the norm.


Perhaps you don't know everything after all

Are bed risers for the benefit of the frat boys so they don;t have to bend their knees to get down low?

So you are saying that most colleges do not accept package deliveries?? I will need to see some data to update my knowledge base.

Junior year I was the 8th girl in an off-campus townhouse with kids from my bf's sorority, ie 7 girls from the sorority + me. Of the things these girls brought -- one rich girl bought chandelier and paid for an electrician to install it in the dining room, another brought a kitchen aid mixer (i dont think it was ever used). In the chandelier girls defense it she and her best friend had promised their parents they would live in the house for the last 2 years of school. Later that year chandelier girls's bf decided a chic downtown apt would be cooler for senior year and broke her promise. I was awkwardly the only other person home when chandelier girls parents put their foot down and woulndt let her move bc of all the $ theyd sunk into making the house nice on her promise of 2 year stay.
