Before you decide what to take to college, consider your living situation. If you live alone it will be easy to decide; however, if you will have a roommate, you need to call them and decide what each of you will bring. There’s nothing worse than having two stereos and no refrigerators.
Here is a partial list of things that come in handy and hopefully you have thought of all of them, but if not, we are happy to help.
Supplies – laundry bag or basket, laundry soap, personal toiletries, bath linens, stain remover, sewing kit, eating utensils, cups and plates, bedding & blankets, backpack, bike and lock, first aid kit, shower bag & flip flops.
Clothes to match the weather – raincoat, boots, swimsuit, shorts, workout clothes, sportswear from your new college, “dress” clothes, blazer , few ties, ”helper” clothes to clean up yard or paint the siding, seasonal clothes for weather changes.
Comfort items are most important to keep you focused & feel at home – favorite snacks, room decorations like posters, stuffed animals, family photos, computer games, your worn-in sports equipment, schedule trips home and place them on your calendar.
Electronics to help pass the time – television, stereo, DVD player, microwave, mini-fridge, cell phone, digital camera, I-Pod or MP3 player, computer and peripherals, power strip & extension cords, desk lamp, alarm clocks, and a fan or air conditioner.
Textbooks – Be certain that you check with the professors so you get the correct textbooks for the classes. Too many times the books are updated and you get the wrong ones. Also, look for the textbooks online rather than going to the campus book stores. You can really save a lot of money.
My Web site collects and compares cheap books from all over the Internet. Book Deal Finder, http://www.BookDealFinder.com, will help you find a cheap book by title, author, keyword or ISBN number. Finding cheap textbooks books while saving time and money is as easy as 1-2-3 with Book Deal Finder.
