Hi.

Try Argos: https://www.argos.co.uk/events/student-essentials
There's one in Colchester town centre. You can reserve items online and collect them from the store: https://www.argos.co.uk/stores/search/colchester

You can also try Home Bargains: https://www.homebargains.co.uk/category/14-homeware.aspx, the Asda superstore and The Range although these three are a bit farther out from the centre. You can find their exact locations using the store locators on their websites.

My daughter and I shopped for items at all of them when she moved to Colchester 4 years ago.

Hope this helps. :smile:

Agreed with Fiona, there are also on campus shops (although they are very overpriced imo, although they do sell some good international food from what I've heard). There's also a Tesco a few minutes walk from the campus and they sell a few different things.
