Sunshyne Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Where can I find one of these for cheap? Like $5-$10. My son has the Thomas the Tank Engine bedding, and I am not spending $24 for the dust ruffle. He has the set sold at Walmart (Thomas' Bedtime Express), but they do not carry this. I am thinking I could just get him a blue one or even red to match the accents in his room. I was surprised at how much even plain ones cost. Surely some store out there sells them for a less? I've looked at Value City, Family Dollar, and all the big discount stores. I need a twin size. Please help! TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridasunshine Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I would look on line at places like Brylanehome, Domestications, abcdistributing. Ebay would be a good choice for this type item... here is a navy blue one ... looks like it would ship for about $5, so total would be about $10 now unless it bids higher: http://cgi.ebay.com/InStyle-Bright-Navy-Bedskirt-TWIN-pretty-blue-color_W0QQitemZ190066975164QQihZ009QQcategoryZ20447QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayhaysay Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I had to go look and see what the set looks like. I actually think it might be cuter with just a solid color (red IMO ) bedskirt. Just keep your eyes out for the clearance isles. With spring coming up all of the bold fall/winter colors will be put away. I checked on eBay for a red twin but the cheapest price there would still put you at almost $20 shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirForceMom Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I use flat sheets in place of dust ruffles. For a twin bed I buy a queen or king and for our queen size bed I usually purchase two flats and overlap them on the bed springs. Can pick up clearance sheets for cheap at Target.

Sunshyne Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks for the link to the one on ebay. I'll keep an eye on it today. My mom suggested the same thing with getting a regular flat sheet (I was trying to convince her into sewing one for me lol). My son's bed sits higher than most as it was part of a bunk bed, so I think I'd need a king sheet. I'm going to check out some discount stores later today. Thanks for the ideas. :) I still don't understand why they are so pricey though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
