When shopping back-to-school sales for furniture, there are two words to zero in on: dorm room. Also: “college,” “campus,” etc. Obviously, if you need to get your kid a new Trapper Keeper (assuming those are still a thing? ? ) that’s a different story, but for discounted bedding, storage, even art and small appliances you should definitely be shopping dorm room back-to-school sales.
Tucked between the water pitchers and jersey sheet sets are gems galore – like this cushy memory foam mattress that’s just $215 right now. Whatcha waiting for? Here are 8 of our favorite back-to-school sales to pilfer for home decor.
