Deviating Dorm Decor

Mothers, beware: PopWall.com (https://www.popwall.com) is attacking dorm rooms across the country. With collegians increasingly turning to the Internet for their back-to-school needs, they are shopping less frequently with Mom. And why not? Macy’s doesn’t carry candles shaped like the human brain. Or lava lamps and black lights.

Setting up their homes away from home, college kids finally have free rein to decorate their rooms however they want--with glow-in-the-dark beaded curtains and psychedelic, tie-dyed bed covers. Boys may be tempted to spend all their parents’ money on posters of scantily clad coeds. Girls, seeking revenge, may wish to have a life-size cutout of John Wayne shooting at their boyfriend du jour. All are available at PopWall.com.

And when students have spent all their money e-shopping, they can become a PopWall.com representative and do some on-campus promoting for extra cash. This sly marketing tactic, coupled with Speak Up, a feedback page, allows the students to be PopWall.com trend-spotters.

Inflatable furniture, anyone?
