The trip off to college is the first significant time away from home for many Americans. With a whole new crop of undergrad hopefuls graduating from high school each year, there are always new dormitory rooms to fill with possessions. The key to outfitting a dorm room is size: anything small is a great idea, and anything that improves space availability is a better idea. Here are the best offerings from the wholesale world for the soon to be freshman taking up residence at university.
Wholesale Kitchen Aids and Supplies
A kid's gotta eat, right? No one wants dining hall food all the time, and there is nothing like midnight pizza rolls courtesy of the micro-fridge in the corner. Few freshman accommodations offer stoves or ovens of any type, so students must get by with wholesale kitchen appliances for their culinary needs. Wholesale steamers, refurbished coffee makers, and overstock rice cookers are perfect solutions-- they are small, cook a variety of foods, and provide snacks and caffeine no matter what time it is.
In addition to cooking the food, don't forget about sharing it with roommates! A set of inexpensive wholesale dishes are best because they can be washed in the bathroom sink and reused. Wholesale dish sets of four or less with cups/mugs, plates, and bowls are more than adequate. Bonus items that are great to add on are wholesale flatware, where students can buy only a few forks, spoons, and knives rather than a full 60-80 piece set that will take up too much space. A microwaveable liquidated platter is a handy dish to have for serving pizza, appetizers, and nachos.
Wholesale Organization Products
To say space is limited in a dorm room is an understatement. Beds are lofted to give more room, and closets or wardrobes are crammed full, worse than a clown car. Wholesale organization solutions such as liquidated over the door hooks, wholesale plastic storage bins, and overstock shower caddies are a must for orientation. Plus, in the event of roommate meltdown, it's very handy to separate “Mine” from “Yours.”
While many student may think of wholesale organization products, one area they may forget is wholesale food storage. With funds typically limited throughout the semester, college students need to keep snacks like popcorn, cereal, and chips fresh in airtight containers. Wholesale food storage plastic sets are great to make an impromptu food pantry that fits under a desk, or on top of a wardrobe. The best wholesale food storage sets stack inside of each other to save room when not in use.
Wholesale Bedding
The famous hunt for extra long twin sheets begins the second a high school diploma is in hand. What college residence hall pamphlets fail to mention is that regular twin sheet sets will fit fine, leave at worst about an inch or two of mattress showing. The only downside is using regular twin sheets on extra long twin beds will stretch out the fitted sheet so it will sag on a regular twin bed. This isn't a problem for the undergrad since the over sized comforter covers the mattress, and the extra long twin bed is where the head hits the pillow for at least four years, and likely more.
Wholesale twin sheet sets are the best way to procure at least two sheet sets, one for the bed and one for the wash, all at the price of one retail extra long twin sheet set. Other than sheets, overstock pillows always come in handy. The more pillows on the bed mean the more seating for “guests” when they come over to hang out. Or drag the pillows and a wholesale fleece blanket to the common room and enjoy movie night en masse on the big TV. The communal environment of college dormitories makes wholesale bedding adaptable to migratory living a luxury.
Wholesale Sporting Goods
All work and no play... well you get the idea. Most colleges and universities offer large lawns just begging for outdoor sports when the weather is nice. Wholesale sporting goods can cut the price tag on this fun for all, with offerings such as overstock baseballs and liquidated soccer balls. At least students can justify cutting class by taking a warm weather day by getting a little bit of exercise too.
Large convocation centers and gyms are all the rage at American undergraduate facilities. Finding a basketball or mat for yoga class that isn't sticky with someone else's sweat is a trial. Wholesale basketballs make a pick up game always available, and overstock yoga mats double for a variety of exercise classes. For indoor fun, turn any table into a tennis match with a simple wholesale ping-pong paddle set. Call it extracurricular exploration-- a vital aspect of any well-rounded education.
The first move away from home can be an expensive one, even for a well-funded aspiring collegiate. Improve the quality of life in a dorm room, without breaking the bank for tuition and books by purchasing items wholesale. Refurbished kitchen appliances can be less than half the original price, and overstock plastic storage solutions never become obsolete. Wholesale bedding offers ample opportunities to purchase extra pillows, sheet sets, and blankets. Don't forget to pack some fun along by selecting wholesale sporting equipment, for both indoor and outdoor activities. Too bad you can't buy tuition at wholesale prices too!
