Dorm Room Must Have’s

It’s your first year in a college dorm room, your first year away from home and there are bound to be things that you’re going to forget or not even know that you need! So, for Will It Work Wednesday today we asked for tips from our listeners! Here’s what they said you need!

1)Megan is a UVA student and said you will definitely need extension chords and power strips b/c there are very few outlets in college dorm rooms.

2)Tracy says lots of wipes, Fabreeze and a plastic trashcan (not wicker)!

3)Deanna said Walmart/Target gift cards b/c it will help with the things you’ve forgotten. Also, risers for the bed and totes to put under the bed to use like drawers b/c you’ll need the extra storage.

4)Bobby emailed and said toilet paper and paper towels. Depending on where you go to school, toilet paper is not always provided and it never hurts to have extra TP.
