I'm tired of the dorm stuff I bought from Walmart and Target, it's junk and all falling apart. Is there a place I can go to buy high quality stuff that will last and place I can find cool dorm stuff?

what stuff? :confused:

most any store carries good stuff as well as junkie stuff. if you can't tell the difference, take your mom with you.

If you're talking furniture...try www.ikea.com. Inexpensive, easy to assemble, and pretty sturdy.

How much of a beating does your furniture take? If it takes alot of abuse (as I imagine a guys dorm room might?! :rolleyes: ) then your better bet might be to go to yard sales, or stores like Salvation Army...buy older, really sturdy furniture there. Again, inexpensive!

I agree with Annette, though. Just because something was bought at Target or WalMart doesn't necessarily mean it's crap! Some of the stuff that they sell is very good. But even those things might not be right for your lifestyle.
