I absolutely love Ikea. At first when it came to my city, I didn't know what all the fuss was about, but once I got in there, I knew. It is a huge warehouse full of great prices and unique, Scandanavian products. I'm the queen of cheap, so it was heaven for me. I furnished all of my kitchen and linen needs in under $125. I got pillows, comforters, curtains, pots & pans, dishes, towels, rugs, you name it! I love going there just to see what I can get for cheap.

Also, I love their breakfasts, because trust me, I'm there before they open up.

Now, if you're looking for something that's longer lasting, you may want to purchase the higher quality items they have there (still great prices), but if you're on a budget (for students going away to college especially), and you're trying to stretch your dollar, this is the place to go. My items have lasted at least a year without needing to be replaced. I highly recommend it!
