The ads are starting to come out in the Sunday paper - Target, WalMart, all the big stores, all the small stores - with all the stuff you will need as you head off to college.
Save your money. There's not room for most of that stuff. Dorm rooms are small. You are not trying to win a decorating award. Save your money for books and food. Borrow your roommate's stuff.
The less stuff you bring to college, the less stuff you have to move back home in spring.
Ignore all those ads that try to convince you to furnish and decorate your dorm room. You really only need your clothes, your pillow and your computer. Maybe a few other things. But then that's all. There are very few things that qualify as "dorm essentials."
