Furnishings like towels, bedsheets, ready made curtains and cushions,get from Ross or some other factory outlet shops.
no need you can go to furniture clearing center.....basically these are furniture renting companies they are trying to dispose off used rental furniture....pretty good.

And long the insurance line, you might want to consider getting renter's insurance and most importantly, medical and dental insurance. Medical and dental costs here are really high.
