How to get double bed bedding cheap

Larger than twin beds, double beds are an economical choice for your home. Double beds are smaller than both king and queen beds, but are large enough to fit two adults in most cases. Double beds - because they are smaller - usually cost less to buy bedding for. Still, whether you have foam beds or divan beds or latex beds or any other kind of double sleep beds, you want to make sure you get the best deals as far as bedding is concerned. Fortunately, there are a few places to look to get good bedding cheap.

Make your own

One way to get inexpensive double bed material is to make your own quilt, pillow cases or duvets. You can buy inexpensive or discontinued fabric or remnants from the fabric store and easily sew your own double duvet cover or double pillow cases. Sewing your own double sheets may be a bit harder because the fitted sheet needs to be elastic to fit over the bed, but it is still possible. Making your own bedding or quilts from inexpensive fabrics is often not only the lowest cost way to get bedding, but is also the best way to get exactly the look you are going for.

Discount local stores

Discount local stores like TJ Maxx are another good place to get double bedding at reasonable prices. You should look for your own local discount linens store near you - almost everyone has some kind of overstock, liquidator or bargain store where they can look for cheap linens. You generally should avoid getting used linens from places like garage sales or thrift stores because of the potential risk of bed bugs. Although if you find a great deal and are comfortable with used bedding, you can kill of most bugs and germs by washing the bedding in very very hot water. Still, it is best to try the discount stores first to get new and sealed double bedding at good prices.

Discount online stores

Discount online stores also offer good deals on things like goose down duvets or other types of double bed bedding. Consider stores like Amazon.com, which have a wide number of resellers and who can provide you with a good selection of double beds which you can compare shop to find the best prices.
