SNAP TO IT
Ramona Singer infamously called Kodak antiquated, much to the chagrin of Jill Zarin, who was hosting an event on the company’s behalf during a season three episode of The Real Housewives of New York. Points go to Team Jill for that round, because Ramona was way off base. In fact, the iconic brand is as cutting-edge as its gets when it comes to affordable consumer technology. Case in point: the EasyShare M580 , the world’s thinnest 14 megapixel, five-times zoom digital camera. The pocket-sized point-and-shoot also features a Share Button, which allows users to tag and upload pics to Facebook, YouTube, the Kodak Gallery and Flickr within seconds of plugging it into a computer. Mmhmm. Whatcha got now, Ramona? ($199.95; www.kodak.com )
RINSE & REPEAT
Shower time is sacred. And simplehuman aims to make it even better with its twin wall mounts with basket. Wide openings on the shampoo and conditioner dispensers prevent messy spills (is there a such thing in the shower?) and makes refills fast and easy. Convenient storage hooks hold a razor, loofah or other accessories, and the square tissue holder features an integrated clamp that keeps the box from falling out. (Although, if you’re blowing your nose in the shower, you’ve probably got bigger issues than escaping tissues.) Mount securely to a dry wall in 24 hours with silicone glue.

From tiny closets to rude roommates, dormitory living can have its pitfalls. But students can get a handle on some dorm room dilemmas even before setting foot on campus this fall.
These great tips will help make the dorm room or off-campus apartment experience more comfortable:
Shopping Prep
Avoid purchasing items the school provides or prohibits. Find your school's do's and don'ts at www.bedbathandbeyond.com/shopforcollege, by selecting "Find My College."
Use free tools like a checklist or online registry to coordinate with future roommates on styles, colors and who will be bringing what items for community use.
Opt for retailers that have college students in mind this time of year and are offering special services.
For example, Bed Bath & Beyond's free service, "Shop Here, Pick up There," lets students shop for dorm room essentials at a store near home and pick up everything at a store near campus. Use their college checklist and take advantage of in-store experts to stay organized and within budget.
