Just because your son or daughter is ready to enter college and begin a
new milestone in their lives, doesn’t mean they have stopped being your
baby. And making sure they get the best night’s sleep possible is vital
to their educational success. When shopping for bedding, you can’t just
pick any run-of-the-mill “bed in a box”—for almost all dorm beds are not
the standard twin size we are used to, but rather they are slightly
longer than their popular cousins. Your child will need xlong twin sheets to guarantee the perfect fit, and provide maximum comfort.
Online Shopping is Mom’s Best Friend
Shopping with your kids may be fun for you, but most kids (especially
boys) aren’t too keen on it. However, online shopping with your kids is
usually more appealing to them, and it offers many benefits for moms.
First of all, the back-to-school niche is hugely popular, and items sell
out quickly in physical stores, even months in advance. But online
stores almost always keep their inventory stocked. Also, competition is
fiercer, so shoppers can usually get better deals online. Think about it
this way: not too many people are willing to drive all over town
visiting multiple stores to price bedding. But surfing the Internet with
your feet up is easy, effortless, and everyone is doing it. Therefore,
online retailers will typically fight tooth and nail to offer their
customers the best deals. In addition, online shopping usually offers
more product varieties than physical department stores will.
Another cost-saving benefit to online shopping revolves around the topic of impulse buying. In a recent article by Global Good Group,
the author argues that because the shopper doesn’t have to pass through
rows upon rows of other merchandise to get the product they want, one
is least likely tempted to buy something that isn’t needed. The author
continues that impulse buying is a substantial factor to household and
personal overspending. When doing back-to-school shopping, especially
for college level kids, saving money is more vital than ever to ensure
the student gets what he/she truly needs. College life isn’t cheap, and
buying only what is absolutely needed will pay off big.
It’s for more than just Sleeping
When buying bedding for your college kid, remember that the bed is the
greatest multi-functional item in their tiny dorm room. It not only
serves as a place for sleep, but as a sofa for those social gatherings, a
place to study, and a place for lounging about. Due to the fact that
most dorm rooms are small and lack room for sofas and lounge chairs, the
bed must serve dual purposes. Providing your child with multiple
choices in bedding will enable them to switch up the ambiance and style
of their room, and ensure a feeling of newness and freshness into what
could otherwise be a mundane room that always stays the same.
Shop Smart
Make it fun. Bring out a bowl of popcorn with your laptop and sit down
with your child for a fun, stress-free online shopping trip. Engage with
your son or daughter, and work together to find the best deals on XL
twin bedding for their dorm room. And be sure to buy a multiple sets to
offer some variety and ever-changing freshness to their room. After all,
a fresh study environment will help nurture a fresh mind.
