Transcript

College dorm finds in the Target $5 section. As a college student moving into a dorm, the Target $5 section is where it's at right now. I really liked having a mesh shower caddy in college. This one's only $3. Lap desks, which will be really nice if you want to do homework on your bed. And decor items that you can put on your desk. This light up dry erase board is perfect to put your keys on right by the door so you never forget them. This is also great for command strips. This desktop fan is super useful especially in the spring and in the summer. Some colleges don't have AC systems, they only have heating. So these are really nice. And then this is great if you want to keep some snacks and stuff on your bed while you're watching a movie or something. Some really nice stackable organization pieces, trying to keep your dorm organized is key because there's so little space. And lots of campuses do not let you have candles, so getting something like this would be great. So having some kind of humidifier, even if it's a mini one like this one, would be really nice. Monthly calendars are great, they are not date specific. You can go ahead and write everything in yourself, which is really nice. And then these are really nice cloth organizers. These are storage bins. They also come in this tan color. And then these are really cute tiered stands for any kind of desk. Some more great organizers for your desk. And then these little mirrors for your desk as well. And these ones are magnetic. Some really cute plush throws that are only $5. Storage bin is so cute. It's like a pink eyelet. And this one is also only $5.
