Ok, update on the project “Get Bella’s Ass To Hawai’i” so as of this very moment Bella literally has NO flight scheduled lol.
Yes I’m laughing!
I cannot stress about things that are out of my control.
The NY to LAX portion of the flight was changed by Jetblue and was not going to make the connecting flight to Hawai’i therefore we had to cancel everything.
Yes everything!
We are now back to square one.
Tonight after I coordinate with her roommate’s mom we will rebook the flight and fingers crossed it stays booked!
One of the options for shopping, when she gets to Hawai’i, is Bed Bath & Beyond.
I recently found out about their FREE Moving Solutions service.
Instead of packing up and hauling your stuff across the country or state, you can just head to your local Bed Bath & Beyond or online and to do your shopping.
We WILL be making a trip there soon for Bella to scan her items and then her teammates will pick them up for her at HPU.
Contact your local Bed Bath & Beyond store for more details.
Remember that 20% off coupon when you go!
Video describing the program.
Here is the same list from the Target essentials post to get a jump start.
Side note: Any items that do not have a link up are not available for purchase.

Again this is just to get a jumpstart because Bella will scan the items she likes when we go to the actual store.
I spoke with someone today at the Hawai’i store who said we need to put the location in where we will make the pickup.
If an item is NOT available you will not be able to scan it in the NY location.
Wish us luck on the whole flight booking situation.
I’m sure it will all work out in the end but the ups and downs before are making the process not so enjoyable.
COVID isn’t helping either with the quarantine situation because trust me I’d LOVE to be traveling with Bella to get her set up.
The plan after was to hang out the rest of the week on the beach (other than the parent orientation day) because we all know Bella was going to ditch my ass once she was settled in.
I did this before with my son Quimes so I know how it goes.
Let me know in the comments below how your college planning is going.
As always… Have an awesome day full of Unicorns + Rainbows!
