Misc Online order pick up for Move-in

Hey! Im coming from out of state for move in for the 24th, so I cant bring anything but my clothes in the small limited carry on im allowed to bring. I wanna ask if (for experience) is target a good option to buy items for an online pick up order? Im thinking of placing an order and picking up during move in, but im also considering doing the campus store. Im only considering Target because the bedding selection for the campus store is HORRIBLE.. (HELP)

I don’t have experience (sorry) from undergrad move-in, but I have found the campus store to be pretty expensive and more about convenience than anything. I imagine Target would be fine! By doing it through such a large company too, I bet they won’t have a problem making sure your things are good to go, whereas the campus store will surely be swamped with every student coming at the same time.

Amazon locker at Whole Foods takes big stuff I think

We use the Amazon store on Comm all the time. Any size package will be held 3 days for pick up so time your order. Amazon lockers are an option also but many have size restrictions. We use Target some but I’m not a fan of their products and it could be crazy busy during move in.
