Bed, Bath, and Beyond, or Walmart, or maybe Target. Actually not an easy item to find these days.

At the stores, or online? You might have to buy two sets to get two flat sheets.

You can always fold over extra portions of larger-sized sheets tuck them underneath the mattress.

I have the same philosophy. I grew up watching British television so I think in British English, not American English. When I moved back to the States, my teachers hated it. Thank Gawd for spell check or I'd still get in trouble for spelling words wrong. </off topic>

I found this (http://www.amazon.com/Wamsutta-Perfect-Pinpoint-Sheet-White/dp/B001KU7KR0/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=bedbath&qid=1242603592&sr=1-11) and this (http://www.amazon.com/Martha-Stewart-Collection-Thread-Count/dp/B000TGP154/ref=pd_sbs_etk_hg_bb__3) after about 5 minutes of searching. It think you can find cheaper ones if you search harder. Note, this probably only comes with one sheet each. You have been forewarned. Also, ask your folks for help. I'm sure they know where you can find some locally and probably cheaper.

Cruise over to the local motels and ask if they have any for sale.  Many hotels and motels buy only flat white sheets in bulk since they are interchangeable, and sometimes they'll sell them (used but clean) for a couple of bucks.

You're going to find motels using single beds very rare. Most if not all I've ever seen are motels with double or king size beds.

I wouldn't order off Neiman Marcus anyways. I would rather do without ever since what there location in the Sax-Fifth Avenue did. 


Good news I found them at walmart, my grandma bought me two full sets of sheets to get them :/
