Darling daughter is about to land in Essex for a three month stint!

what’s the best quality, cheapest bed linen / duvet set I can order for her and get delivered to her accomodation before she arrives?

im googling but first hand advice welcome!

could get the uni pack, but maybe cheaper, better elsewhere?!

thanks!!!

(On a budget :)

How much is the uni pack?
Maybe try looking at george Asda. The bedding sets on there are very reasonably priced.

You can't send items before they arrive

She has to show ID etc etc and collect in person from the door

TossedSaladandSE · 20/09/2024 11:12

Oh that's if she's in Halls that is

https://www.habitat.co.uk/browse/bedding/duvet-covers-and-sets/c:809241/bed-size:double/ Habitat are well priced too and have a sale on. You could try finding nearest pick up point for delivery. Some times post offices, local shops, supermarkets. I have no idea how long they keep them for but when you find that out you could do the logistics.

brilliant! Thankyou!
she arrives at about 4 in afternoon, so hopefully can work it all out!

thanks again, from very excited, anxious mum :) xxx

If you want to order from Asda in advance check the click and collect options locally. My daughter ordered a lot of stuff from Argos which she was able to collect from a nearby Sainsbury's, for example. Habitat are part of the same group, so you may be able to do this. Saves the worry if not being there when delivery arrives.

If you order from John Lewis it can be delivered to their shops or a nearby Waitrose food shop the next afternoon - any orders above £30 are free delivery to the shop or above £50 free home delivery. T K Maxx has some really good quality bed linen heavily discounted. Hope she enjoys the course,

Oh all good info thankyou so much!

Is she in halls? Does the halls have Amazon lockers? if so, simplest would be to order from Amazon and have delivered to the Amazon locker in the hall, or perhaps a locker nearby

babyzoomer · 23/09/2024 16:17

Might be worth checking the bed size as well. Some halls are single, some are small double/large single.

Hope she's arrived safely @nzeire and her bedding is all sorted now Wink
