Top PC Products for Dorm Life: Essential College Wish List Items

[TwinGirlsMom]

Hi everyone! My neighbor's son is off to college in the fall...does anyone have a list of PC products that are great for dorm life? If not, what items are at the top of your list to send with a college-bound student?

I was thinking the round stone, tool turn-about, and citrus peeler for starters!

Judging from when I was in college:

Microcooker/Rice Cooker
New Green Knives
Barboard
Food Chopper
Can Opener
Veggie Peeler
Scrub Brush
Small Bar Pan (fits great in a toaster oven)
New small nylon spatula
SA mugs
outdoor entertianing snap together utensils
New coffee clipper
Adjustable measuring spoons

This list is a bit out of date so you'll need to check prices and for discontinued/restyled products.

Edited: Note that the files have been updated with April & May guest specials and products have been brought up-to-date/correct prices.

I would try to get a little info on the college....some dorms you are allowed a microwave, others you aren't.... same thing with toaster ovens; usually not allowed. If these aren't allowed in the room, there is usually a kitchen or kitchenette in the building....a full size oven. Might not be bad a bad idea to do a full size stone, and then if they have guests over, they could get a frozen pizza and cook it on there!

Here's mine... it's a little bit different then last years because I used some of the new products, use what you need

What a great form. I love it. I've put it into pdf for members here that can't view word documents.

Note, I've updated the files in Post 3 with april & may specials as well as removing discontinued products and updating prices.

Thanks y'all...I knew I had seen some kind of dorm survival kit! Thanks everyone for sharing. Now I can place an insert into the catalog my neighbor requested!

One thing I'd add to these FANTASTIC lists is the Rice Cooker Plus -- not only does it do Rice and veggies, but the molton lave cake is fabulous and easy!
