Send Them Back in Style with Mercata(tm)Send Them Back in Style with Mercata(tm)

 

 


Ahhh… the whims of youth. These days it seems you can’t send them off to school without the four pillars of education: a way to store food, to heat food, be entertained and communicate.

Or, so our intern Lizzy tells me. Lizzy’s been working all summer, but soon will head back for her senior year of college. And as a modern university “veteran,” she assures me the items below are pretty “tight.” Since I’m just going to pretend I know what that means, be sure to check Lizzy’s opinions of the below for yourself.

Hope your summer’s going swell.

Sharp Half Pint Microwave, Translucent Orange

How am I supposed to eat — when I have time, that is — without a microwave? And this one has some FLAIR! The Minute Plus and popcorn buttons sound cool and it looks perfect for heating anything from a big slice of veggie pizza to midnight burritos for all my friends.
Current Price: $99.99 and falling
 
Sanyo Counter-high Deluxe Refrigerator, White
The mini-fridge was INVENTED for dorm rooms and rental homes with too many roommates. Space is at a premium and I want something compact I can tuck away in a small corner for chilling my diet Pepsi. Even better, it has TWO ice trays.

RCA 27-Inch Stereo TV w/PIP and Guide Plus+, F27664 - Now on PowerBuy! RCA 27-Inch Stereo TV w/PIP and Guide Plus+
You can’t study 24/7, so TV is a priceless diversion. Late-night movies, early morning TaeBo sessions, and catching the last five minutes of my favorite soap keep me sane. I won’t have to skip a minute of Friends so my boyfriend can check the ESPN SportsCenter scores — the picture-in-picture feature will take care of that.
Current Price: $308.47 and falling
 
Panasonic 2.4-GHz Cordless Phone (Black) w/Digital Answering Machine
For me, college life is all about communication. I like to keep the conversation rolling — even while I’m emptying the overflowing trash bin or brushing my teeth on the porch. Cordless is definitely the only way to go and Caller ID means I’m “home” when I want to be.
