This giveaway is closed. Congratulations Kathy!
Many moons ago, I remember packing for my first semester of college. I was so nervous. Would I forget something? What if I needed this. Back then, the internet wasn’t readily available to find everything you needed. You had to drive from store to store, just to see what they had in stock. Imagine that!
If you have a kiddo heading off to college this fall, the resources are endless! Macy’s features a complete college dorm checklist on their website and you can create your wish list right online. (don’t forget to share it with family & friends). It makes it incredibly easy to find what you are looking for!
Lifetime Moms has partnered with Macy’s to give away a $100.00 Gift Card to help you with the college dorm expenses.

I think the microwave is what my daughter will need the most. She does a lot of late-night studying and loves to have snacks all throughout the night, so a microwave would definitely come in handy!
