| Call your local hotels/motels. I hear they dispose of them long before they're actually worn out. August and January are "white sale months" at many of the stores. Hit the garage sales. If you have a Trading Post or Consumer Call or whatever they call it at your local radio station, call in and leave your request and phone number. Post on Craigslist (but be careful). |

| I've bought bedding from Overstock.com with good results. Some of the deals are better than others. I think everything I've purchased has held up pretty good. |

| Pay close attention to thread count. I bought some sheets once that were as close to gauze as it could get without having to be labelled as such. I linked a site that will give more information on purchasing sheets but myself, I like a good substantial 100% cotton sheet, laundered and bleached, with the smell and slightly rough feel of an outdoor clothesline drying. I've always said if I ever became rich, such that I had housekeepers and maids, I would insist upon fresh line-dried sheets every night. |

| If you have Costco near by try there. Otherwise I'd go to JC Penneys, Sears or some good name brand store. I have found that I want softness as well as a good size , thick towels and sheets. |
